usage of the same applicationname
<p>we are currently developing a mobile-App for Android and IOS and we would like to use a name for this application, that already exists: &quot;YouTrack&quot;.
BUT of course our application has nothing to do with the existing app.
The existing app is for tracking issues in software, our app is for motorsports.</p>
<p>Is it safe to use the name for our Application?</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Is it safe to use the name for our Application?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>YouTrack is a registered trademark of another company producing software.</p>
<p>Said software is 14 years old, so there is no question here of who came first.</p>
<p>The trademark is valid in the EU. In Germany specifically, this is covered by <a href="https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/markeng/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">MarkenG</a>.</p>
<p>You using the same name for your software as the one registered as a trademark for their software goes against many of the points, but the most obvious one is</p>
<blockquote>
<p>(2) Dritten ist es untersagt, ohne Zustimmung des Inhabers der Marke im geschäftlichen Verkehr in Bezug auf Waren oder Dienstleistungen<br>
1.<br>
ein mit der Marke identisches Zeichen für Waren oder Dienstleistungen zu benutzen, die mit denjenigen identisch sind, für die sie Schutz genießt,</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Translated:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Third parties shall be prohibited, without the consent of the proprietor of the trade mark, from using in the course of trade in relation to goods or services<br>
1.<br>
Use a sign identical with the trademark for goods or services identical with those for which it enjoys protection,</p>
</blockquote>
<p>So the name is in no way &quot;safe&quot;.</p>
<p>Given that there is &quot;YouTrack&quot;, &quot;uTrack&quot; and even &quot;u-track&quot; already, don't you want a unique brand people can recognize as yours? Isn't that the point of a <em>name</em>?</p>
