Marvel Comics Trademarks "Ghost-Spider"

When Marvel announced the cartoon Marvel Rising: Secret Warriors featuring a collection of Marvel's newer superheroes Spider-Gwen, Squirrel Girl, Ms. Marvel, Quake, Inferno, America, Patriot, Captain Marvel and Exile, it also gave us a new name for Spider-Gwen, Ghost-Spider.

Marvel Comics Trademarks "Ghost-Spider"The question is, would that name apply to the Spider-Gwen comic as well? Where the character is known as Spider-Woman in her own universe? Especially with a rumoured appearance on Agents Of SHIELD as well, featuring the Spider-Gwen/Spider-Ghost voice actress Dove Cameron.

Could she be appearing as Ghost-Spider? Would that be possible?

Either way, Marvel have suddenly started registering the trademark for Ghost-Spider for all sorts of things. Six separate registrations for…
