Question
Since I want to create a brand for selling my self-designed items, I'm planning to create an app with the same name to promote them.
The app will run on Android, Windows Phone and iOS. The brand name is already chosen and there is a ready-to-launch logo, but the app itself is not yet finished. I would like to secure the name though so I won't have the risk that somebody else uses it before I launch the app.
Can I register (or lock someway) a name of an app even before having created it?

I am assuming your main market of interest is the United States, if this is the case I recommend you apply for the trademark in uspto.gov basing the trademark as "intent to use".
Regarding the application it is necessary to classify it in one or more of the 45 trademark classes. If you send me a list of what the app does I can send you the classification that corresponds to you.
Regards,
