How do you register a biz motto?

I have a ficticious biz name already registered. And I just came up with a motto. However, I am wondering if this is something I should somehow register too? I don't want anyone to copy it. Like for example Buger Kings motto is Have it your way. So I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on how I can reserve my motto. Cheapest online route is appreciated. Thanks for reading my question.

Answer:
what you are looking for is a "service mark"

the best place I know is from a service here in my town:

If you use this service, include in your comments that you heared about them from Mike at Strictly Business Magazine.
Wherever you filed your DBA name, you should also be able to file for your trademark/service mark.

In Ohio, business filings are with the Secretary of Sate.
