The "Pixels" thing clearly shows that trademarking common English words is ripe for confusion. A little creativity would go a long way towards reducing confusion.

You can't make DMCA request for trademarks. That was a copyright complaint that looked for a common English word. The complaint would have been overly broad whether or not it was trademarked.
