You aren’t using it for profit, so someone else can. If you envision turning it into a profit-making venture, the first one to trademark/copyright it usually gets it.



Copyrights are automatic as soon as an a phrase or sentence is written under US law. Also not making a profit off of it doesn’t mean someone else automatically can. You can hold copyright or trademark over an item and not make any money off of it but prevent others from doing so (various free software packages do this all the time).
