They were allowed to keep the name on the Lahaina and Waikiki ones, but any new openings would have to have a different name. The one in Wailea is called "Cheeseburgers, Mai Tais, and Rock-n-Roll", Vegas has "Cheeseburger at the Oasis". etc. All very lame, but Buffett needed to make another couple of million dollars by selling the rights to the name to The Outback company so they can start opening "Cheeseburger in Paradise" restaurants in Ohio and the like.
