I wouldn't dream of eating it as chocolate.
There is a "Dove" soap, in the US. But, also a chocolate manufactured
by "Mars". "Dove bars" (a frozen confection) are the most commonly known
use of the name other than soap.
I believe you are allowed to use a name that has a known market IF you
use it in a distinct OTHER market. E.g., the folks who make Dove
ice cream products can't go in the soap business (as that would be
an obvious confusion and harm to the other Dove's brand)
I presume like Kenwood Hifi (foodmixers only in UK) the branding is very different in the USA. I don't recall noticing Dove chocolate there.
Kenwood (no "HiFi") makes heavy duty/upscale "stand" mixers.
Kenwood makes car "stereo" equipment (I think their home market
is gone). They are now a part of JVC (Victor Corporation of Japan).
