My fund name is a combination of two words that are common terms in the sector. There are funds that have only one or the other word in their names, but not in combination. The corp name, the domain, trademark for my chosen combination are all available. Can I still be sued?

You can get sued for anything, especially if you reside in a litigious country or domicile. Typically, it's best to try to avoid combinations if the names are very common because other parties may raise trademark concerns.
