I want to use a name that is already trademark in Puerto Rico, and I want to start a Magazine. Can I use the name even if it's trademarked already?

Question Details:

I'm starting a Magazine and the name that I would use is already trademarked, by a company, it's a travel tourist website that deals with travel and business. It's associated with Puerto Rico tourist company. My magazine is a state community magazine, which will have information for people from different states. If I put the word Magazine behind the name does it make it different and is not affected by the trademark protection law. The first part of the name of the Magazine is trademarked by a different company. Does it make it different by putting a different word after the first word. Thank u
