In fairness, the original divinity of Loki would probably hate to exercise his own trademarks. Isn't confusion one of his main goals.

I guess the real Loki would be really amused by current mankind. Copyright infringement on his name by an entertainment company explicitly included.
Using law to sew chaos is such a delicious irony.
Loki isn't even the only "Loki" in Norse mythology - at one point there's a completely unrelated giant named Utgard-Loki, suggesting "Loki" might not even be a proper name so much as a title.

The irony is unavoidable.
