Dear honorble Judges, and Argonathians,
I have recently started a family called "Braddock"
Where can I set a patent for this name? I see multiple people using it now...

Anything that doesn't block roleplay can be copyrighted. Other kind of copyright/patent must be allowed by the president himself. Ex of good and bad patent:

Person has 7 days to pay the fees. If he fail to do so, any further disposition regarding the case is void or money will be taken directly into his account.
Copyright: What is acceptable and what is not
Acceptable:
Anything that is RP and not unacceptable (See unacceptable)
Unacceptable:
IRL copyright infringement: If the name of an IRL product is copied directly with it's concept (Ex: Budweiser beer) it shall be denied for copyright infringement.
Generic terms: Anything with law enforcement, fire department, medical unit, army, air force, navy, response unit, police, federal or any term that may refer to a government unit shall be denied.
Governmental/Federal/National: It require a presidential authorization, will belong to the state and will be considered as official, therefore not needing copyright, only a copy of authorization.
Army and such things: Until official army gets released/announced, such are to be considered as RP group/gang with active recruitment.
Group/Gang: Register in proper forum, not over court.
Personal Names: Names can't be copyrighted, No one can own a name. (E.X: John, John_Sheppard,Miley Cirus,Justin Beiber)

You could register the name as a Corporation or such. Such as Braddock Corporation. Explain your work type - keep out the obvious mafia stuff if it applies.
So if someone does use the name, you'll still be able to sue them, for something, and people still cannot impersonate your group.

I got a question, would it be possible for a registered corporation to change a house into a hotel for its members? Thanks.

Properties will not be changed for the individual. You'll have to buy a business which is suitable to have a 'hotel interior' in to become a hotel.
