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.

“On 16 September 1985, when the Commerce Department announced that the United States had become a debtor nation, the American Empire died.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Good resolutions are useless attempts to interfere with scientific laws. Their origin is pure vanity. Their result is absolutely nil. They give us, now and then, some of those luxurious sterile emotions that have a certain charm for the weak.... They are simply cheques that men draw on a bank where they have no account.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“A woman’s beauty is a storm-tossed banner;
Under it wisdom stands, and I alone
Of all Arabia’s lovers I alone
Nor dazzled by the embroidery, nor lost
In the confusion of its night-dark folds,
Can hear the armed man speak.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
