They did not. They were formed as the Lord Chamberlain's Men in 1594. Their name changed to the King's Men (they did not have any choice in their name) when the King became their patron nine years later in 1603.

Why did the lord chamberlains theatre change to the kings men theatre in 1594?
It didn't. The Lord Chamberlain's Men was not a theatre. It was a company of actors and other men who put on plays. They were formed in 1594. They took their name from their patron--by law, acting companies of this kind had to have a patron--who was the Lord Chamberlain. In 1603, they got a new patron and a new name, although it was still the same group of actors. Their new patron was King James I, and so their new name was The King's Men. There never was such a thing as the King's Men Theatre.
