When the articles of incorporation are filed in the office of the secretary of state under section 3907.02 of the Revised Code, and the name assumed by the company is not so nearly similar to that of any other company organized in this state as to lead to confusion or uncertainty on the part of the public, the secretary of state shall submit them to the attorney general for examination.
