Earlier this week we stumbled upon a trademark registration for Square-Enix. The trademark was for 'Square', and it seemed to indicate a name change for the company. Since that filing, Square-Enix has stepped forward to smack down those rumors.

While there have been articles speculating about our trademark registrations of single words and groups of words included in our brands, and SQUARE ENIX specifically, we have no plans to change our company name or branding.” - Square-Enix's Robert Peeler

Looks like the Square-Enix name is going to stay. Too bad that doesn't tell us what the trademark was for!
