EA's The Godfather franchise has two weapons that use the name Dillinger. The name is the name of a famous bank burglar, John Dillinger. This is a similar problem faced by the EA.
Jeffery Scalf said that his grandmother was half-brother of Dillinger, EA has been threatened with a lawsuit unless they pay him a sum of money (according to the information, millions of dollars) for using his fathers name for a weapon.
He made these claims with the assumption that he has control over all aspects of property ownership Dillinger, including any imitation or face a similar name.
But this seems not Jefferey efforts will bear fruit. The reason, the EA has filed an application to a judge in San Francisco to eliminate this case and give them permission to use the name Dillinger whenever they want.
