I was curious if names like the ones below would have any Trademark issues?

WALshopMART.com , YOUviewTUBE.com , AMAmomZON.com , MCdollarDONALDS.com

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Well, I'm not a lawyer... but there could very well be some. Though, my question would be more what would be the point of these domains? If there is something specific you have in mind for them... ok. They are just not "natural" ... what I mean is that I don't know many people who are going to say "I'm going to WalShopMart.... be right back".... so things like SEO and searchability would be affected.

Well I was just using these domains as example. I had thought about registering a similar domain for a brand, but was unsure if it would cause a trade mark issue. I appreciate your comment, I hope more members here will comment as well.

Thanks

The fact that you even ask the question means you know the answer is YES.
Think about that.
