(no love for James Cameron, but) are fans of a Nickelodeon series first released in 2005 really complaining about the existence of other media using the name Avatar? 🤔
Cameron’s first Avatar film wasn’t completed until 2009 but it was in development (under that name) in the 90s. Here is an article about it from 1996.
As OP’s screenshot notes, Nickelodeon’s show was never released with a single-word name because they were aware of Cameron’s trademark prior to it being released.
I don’t know anything about movies but the link the person I replied to has multiple movies with the name “avatar” as a single world, do you happen to know why it is possible to copyright the title if others have used it before?

If they are preventing better series from using it… yeah why not I can be grumpy about a lot of things at the same time.
Like the band Atreyu. The name deserves so much more.
this guy gets it
Love for James Cameron! You should watch the documentary about him designing and building a submarine, done the right way vs the titan submersible.
I actually really like many of Cameron’s movies, it’s just that Avatar is so mid and forgettable, even compared to a crowd pleaser like Titanic.
Ironic, isn’t it?
Edit: that page is broken at the moment. If anyone can post a screenshot that would be great
