You would trademark a word or title.
Contents, images and the like would be copywrited.

Have fun, open up a White Wolf product (especially Vampire stuff) and

copywriting Nazi in an Indiana Jones game.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal names
more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves, they
answered to another name, because if another discovered their real name,
it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.
