By default, one generally encounters the Copyright © [company] All Rights Reserved… at bottom. Since you created the theme, is it still okay to put that symbol and verbiage in the footer? I would not want to be in effect claiming ownership of theme, yet it seems good to have so that others recognize content in site cannot just be snatched, etc.

Guess it’s sort of a philosophical question hah. Feel free to take your time getting back.

It’s not a problem actually… my themes are licensed as 100% GPL which you can read about in the footer of this site by clicking on the License link. You can put your own copyright on the front-end of the site, but any copyright or notices within the source files must stay intact; this is the terms of GPL licensing. No one sees that from the front-end, they would just see yours in the footer.
