I remember hearing a story from this girl who was living in Scotland for a few months. According to her, The McDonald's Corporation sued a small Scotish pub/resturant named "McDonald's". The thing is the pub had been named that long before the fast food chain and it was called McDonald's because that was the owneres name. She thought I would get a kick out of that story.
