Based on a recent episode of PhotoshopUserTV that discussed copyright of images in the US (I realise this may be different but the steps probably still apply), I would:
- gather evidence of use, which includes buying a copy of the material you believe contains your copyrighted items
- ask your friends to do the same
- take that evidence to a competent lawyer that understands copyright law, here and OS
If the lawyer thinks you have a case then teh lawyer may ask the offender to provide a list of everywhere the copyrighted ietms are used
You could probably do that yourself but since you are not sure whether a name can be copyrighted then it is best left to a lawyer.
and never get angry in your dealings with the offender.
