You would have to ask a lawyer about this, but in general book titles cannot be copyrighted and I would assume the same is true of journals.
You cannot copyright a title but you can protect a well known title from infringement. You can title your new book "My travels through the Pyrenees" without worrying whether someone else has already used the title. But you cannot title it "Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone." Colin
