1. The name proposed for a corporation
must be distinguishable on the records of the Secretary of State from the names
of all other artificial persons formed, organized, registered or qualified
pursuant to the provisions of this title that are on file in the Office of the
Secretary of State and all names that are reserved in the Office of the Secretary
of State pursuant to the provisions of this title. If a proposed name is not so
distinguishable, the Secretary of State shall return the articles of
incorporation containing it to the incorporator, unless the written,
acknowledged consent of the holder of the name on file or reserved name to use
the same name or the requested similar name accompanies the articles of
incorporation.
2. For the purposes of this section and NRS 82.101 , a proposed name is not
distinguishable from a name on file or reserved name solely because one or the
other contains distinctive lettering, a distinctive mark, a trademark or a
trade name, or any combination of these.
3. The name of a corporation whose charter
has been revoked, which has merged and is not the surviving entity or whose
existence has otherwise terminated is available for use by any other artificial
person.
4. The Secretary of State may adopt
regulations that interpret the requirements of this section.
