.canon

[Konstantinos Komaitis]

And so it begins....if one conducts a search, 14 different hits come back associated with ‘canon’. Its connotation can be found in music, religion and printing – so Canon will be in control of a term that goes far beyond a brand and will get protection for it internationally against basic principles of international trademark law. And, this is just the beginning....

       Is Canon the first official announcement of intent to register a ".brand" gTLD?
http://www.canon.com/news/2010/mar16e.html
       A reasonably interesting test case - it is, of course, an English language word as well as a brand. pachelbels.canon, anyone?
