Blac Chyna's request to trademark the Kardashian name has been denied after a legal battle with Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian. The 28-year-old, who shares a baby daughter with the famous sisters' brother Rob, attempted to trademark her married name "Angela Kardashian" if she were ever to marry him. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the star was banned from using the surname with the legal papers accusing that the brand would "suffer damage including irreparable injury to their reputation and goodwill" continuing that Chyna was "deliberately seeking to profit from the goodwill and popularity".
