True, copyrights do not protect it, but that doesn't mean just anyone can use it. there are places such as the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) that resolve disputes of this nature.

Also true that Copyrights do not protect that, however they CAN be protected as a trademark, Service mark, or Registered trademark.

Is there much of a difference? Not really, the only nig difference is what they protect. So you were technically right when you said that the name McDonalds can't be copyrighted, but it's still protected as a registered trademark.
