WWF.

You must have seen this logo, a black and white giant panda head, simple and eye-catching. This is the logo of WWF, one of the most well-known environmental organizations in the world.

"WWF" originally stood for "World Wildlife Fund". In 1986, WWF realized that the name did not fully reflect the organization's activities, so it changed its name to "World Wide Fund For Nature" (World Wide Fund for Nature). However, the United States and Canada still retain their original names.

Currently, the original abbreviation "WWF" is our only, globally used name. This abbreviation has been recognized by most people since 1961.

Trademark abbreviation

In 1979, the World Wildlife Fund and the World Wrestling Federation (World Wrestling Federation) both used the English abbreviation of "WWF", but problems arose in 1994 because The World Wildlife Fund has already registered the abbreviation "WWF".

In 2000, the WWF sued the World Wrestling Federation for misusing the abbreviation "WWF".

On August 10, 2001, a British court announced that the WWF won the lawsuit. Because of the loss of the lawsuit, the World Professional Wrestling Federation was forced to change its full English name to May 2002. On the 5th, the name "World Wrestling Federation" was changed to "World Wrestling Entertainment", which is abbreviated from "WWE".

And the website address and all content, as well as the stock listing name, were converted from "WWF" to "WWE", which is also the reason why "WWE" is called "World Wrestling Entertainment".
