Don't know if this is what you are asking. The names of most blocks are not copyrighted. As far as I know, there are no hard and fast names to quilt patterns -- Barbara Brackman compiled The Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns that documented hundreds of quilt patterns. It is not uncommon for her to list more than one name for a block because the blocks may have been developed in different parts of the country they got different names. Looking in current magazines, I see blocks that I know by one name that are referred to by different names. Some quilt names do not even contain the names of the blocks. I name my quilts anything I want -- I made a quilt I called floating stars and I did a search on the name and there are a number of quilts out there by that name but none of them look like mine.
Hope this helps.
