Yes, and the patent itself propably expired already in the 1930s, so anyone can copy the design. But the question is if the tradename is still owned by Zeiss or Schneider or if it has expired.

Yes, it could be Schneider if they took over the Hypergon name as well, or maybe it's still Zeiss that owns particular name. It would be a good idea to ask their historical departments. Maybe they would accept a name like "Hypergon Neu nach C. P. Goerz Patent" or something like that. German sounds always better. Then a new range of serial numbers.

"Hypergon Neubau nach C. P. Goerz Original D.R.P. Patent" sounds even better

It's too long and "D.R.P." is redundant as it stands for patent. The design was probably patented in many countries, so 'Patent' is enough.
"Hypergon Neu nach C. P. Goerz Patent" would say in simple terms that it is a new Hypergon based on the C. P. Goerz patent (And would include all of the patents, as it could have been patented in the US, UK and France).
When Franke & Heidecke made a simpler Rolleiflex to be priced between the Rolleiflex Automat and the Rolleicord, they called it "Standard Neu". "Standard" after the older Rolleiflex model, and "Neu" to distinguish it from the old one.
