This is not really a Construct2 related question..
To find the answer on how to register a brand-name you should check the law in your country..
You seem to be from the USA so:
How to register a Trademark
Sorry! I forgot to add that I would be using Construct 2. I was wondering if there was something different about that or any sort of procedure to add.
Before even thinking to start actually your own company, you need a business plan. A business plan is short, to the point and describe the following :
1. A description of your newly business
2. Your goals, both financially and professionally
3. What exactly are you gonna do
4. Your finances (start capital, estimated costs, estimated revenue...)
5. The tools you already have (like Construct 2)
6. The tools you already need (you still do not own them)
7. Other costs like buildings...
8. Your ideas and how to make them to the real world
These points are only examples. But you need before the start to know where you are going. What are you gonna do, what type of games are you gonna make, is there a market for your games? A lot of questions need an answer.
I advise you to first create a few games without starting your own business. If your games are succesfull, then you can think of starting a company.
Keep in mind that a company not only will mean creating games and do what you like to do. A company also has a financial and a legal side. You have a lot of obligations and rules which will maybe less pleasant for you.
Also every succesfull entrepreneur has a clear vision, a strong believing and a talent to overcome all kind of problems on his way. To be a succesfull entrepreneur you need a lot of determination, fate and a sense for adventure.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the information you just gave me a really good idea. The only question I have now is, how do I make money from games? How can I start in order to make enough money to start a company?
