OPINION
FLETCHER, Circuit Judge:
This is a trademark infringement and dilution action brought by Century 21 against one of its former real estate franchisees, Billy Sandlin. Upon termination of the franchise agreement, Sandlin changed the fictitious name under which he did business from “Century 21 Estates” to “Century Investments & Realty.” The district court granted summary judgment to Century 21 and permanently enjoined Sandlin from using the new name. We affirm.
