OPINION
MAY, Judge.
Serenity Springs appeals a judgment in favor of the LaPorte County Convention and Visitors Bureau (“the Bureau”) that permanently enjoined Serenity Springs from using the internet domain name visit-michigancitylaporte.com and transferred the domain name to the Bureau. As “Visit Michigan City LaPorte” was not a protect-able trade name and Serenity Springs’ use of it was not unfair competition, we reverse.
