1. An unincorporated licensee or unincorporated applicant for a license who desires the issuance of a license under a fictitious name must file with the Commissioner a certified copy of the entry in the county clerk’s register and of the certificate or any renewal certificate filed pursuant to chapter 602 of NRS. An incorporated licensee and incorporated applicant must file with the Commissioner in writing the corporation’s true name and the fictitious names under which it conducts or intends to conduct business in this state. After licensing, each licensee shall file promptly with the Commissioner written notice of any change in or discontinuance of any fictitious name.
2. The Commissioner may in writing disapprove the use of any true name, other than the bona fide natural name of a natural person, or any fictitious name used or proposed to be used by any applicant or licensee, on any of the following grounds:
(a) The name interferes with or is deceptively similar to a name already filed and in use by another licensee;
(b) Use of the name may mislead the public in any respect; or
(c) The name states or implies that the licensee or applicant is an insurer or is entitled to engage in insurance activities not authorized under the licenses which the licensee holds or for which the applicant has applied.
