, CBS Sports; Kobe Bryant filed 'Mambacita' trademark for his daughter Gianna in December
"Kobe Bryant was proud to be a father and was even planning the future of his 13-year old daughter, Gianna, before their deaths. According to People Magazine, Bryant filed to trademark the nickname "Mambacita" for his daughter, and planned to use the nickname on athletic clothing.
The
trademark was reportedly filed on Dec. 30, 2019 by Kobe Inc., which was
a company that Bryant founded back in 2014. According to the United
States Patent and Trademark Office, Bryant's trademark is still pending.
Of course, "Mambacita" is derived from Bryant's nickname "Black Mamba," which was used as the Lakers legened's alter ego throughout the second half of his NBA career."
