TM

1. Trade Mark. Often represented as ™. The trademark symbol shows that a name is used by a business to exclusively identify itself or a specific product.

Trade marks do not need to be registered, but under UK law (and the law in this respect may vary from country to country) it is the first person who registers the trademark who can legally prevent others from using it.
