Commerce Bancorp - Commerce Bank Confusion

Commerce Bank Confusion

There were several banks operating in the United States under the name "Commerce Bank" or a similar name, such as Commerce Bank and Trust Company, in Worcester, Massachusetts. A lawsuit by the latter bank caused TD to discontinue its plans to use the name TD Commerce Bank for the new bank. Similarly, the now-defunct Commerce Bancorp should not be confused with Commerce Bancshares, in Kansas City, Missouri, and Commerce National Bank, in Columbus, Ohio.

Famous quotes containing the words commerce, bank and/or confusion:

    Honour sinks where commerce long prevails.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

    A man’s labour is not only his capital but his life. When it passes it returns never more. To utilise it, to prevent its wasteful squandering, to enable the poor man to bank it up for use hereafter, this surely is one of the most urgent tasks before civilisation.
    William Booth (1829–1912)

    My grandmother stood among her kettles and ladles.
    Smiling, in faulty grammar,
    She praised my fortune and urged my lofty career.
    So to please her I studied—but I will remember always
    How she poured confusion out, how she cooled and labeled
    All the wild sauces of the brimming year.
    Mary Oliver (b. 1935)
