Company name use

Could a manufacturer use name for his product which is really another company's name?

thanks

It all depends on the products -- Apple is a common name, and there is Apple computer, and if I wanted to use Apple Software, the answer is NO. If I set up the Apple Bakery, the answer is YES.
