The Lord Chamberlain's men changed their name because they gained the patronage of the reigning monarch King James I thus becoming The King's Men.
The owners of the Globe theatre were all members of the Lord Chamberlain's Men, including Richard and Cuthbert Burbage and William Shakespeare.
All Elizabethan theatre companies took their name from the name of their patron. When their patron changed, their name changed. When the Lord Chamberlain's Men stopped being sponsored by the Lord Chamberlain and started being sponsored by the King, they became the King's Men. The members of the theatre company didn't have any say in the matter.
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.
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.
Shakespeare did not name the acting group he belonged to. Elizabethan theatre groups did not name themselves; they were required by law to have a noble or royal patron and the theatre group took its name from that person. If the patron changed his title, the name of the company changed; if the patron was replaced by someone else (as happened with the company Shakespeare belonged to) then the name of the company changed. Even if the theatre company has some say in what they were called, and they didn't, Shakespeare was not the leader of the company. The brothers Richard and Cuthbert Burbage were the leaders. The patrons of the company were Henry Carey, the Lord Chamberlain and King James I.

About 1 year. Actually the Lord Chamberlain's Men did not do the building (that was a man called Peter Street), and not all of them contributed money to the project. The Globe was owned only by those members of the company who put in money.
