What famous actors were in Shakespeare's companies?
Shakespeare only belonged to one acting company, and he stayed with it for almost twenty years, which is most of his working life. The star actor of that company was Richard Burbage, who took the leading roles in all of Shakespeare's plays. Other members of the company included the famous clowns Will Kempe and Robert Armin. Kempe left the company over (we assume) artistic differences, and Armin replaced him. We know the names of most of the actors who were at one time or other members of the company, because they are conveniently set out in the First Folio. We know rather less about what kinds of actors they were or what kinds of parts they played.
What did they call actors during Shakespeare's time?
Shakespeare was a part owner in two theatres, the Globe, which was a large Theatre open to the elements, and the Blackfriars which was a small indoor theatre. The Blackfriars was called that after the district in London where it was situated. Nobody knows where they got the name The Globe; it could have been Shakespeare's invention or that of one of his partners.
How many owners of the original Globe Theatre were there and what was their names?
my momThere were eight shares of The Globe. The Burbage Brothers each had two shares. Shakespeare had one share as did three other actors in the company.
Who did shakespeare change his companies name in honor of?
Elizabethan acting companies took the names of their patrons--by law, no acting company could exist unless it was sponsored by a noble or royal patron. This was automatic; neither Shakespeare nor anyone else could change the name of the company. The name of the company did not "honor" anyone, it showed who was giving the actors legal protection.
What are the pen names of William Shakespeare?
Shakespeare had no pen names.

How were the names of William Shakespeare's two acting companies chosen?
Just to make it clear, Shakespeare was associated with only one acting company for almost all of his career. It was the only company he was actually a partner in. But it did have two names. The reason for this is that the names for acting companies in Shakespeare's day were never chosen by anyone. It's not like nowadays where if you start an acting company you can call it anything you want. In those days the name of your company was the name of your patron. Period. If you changed patron, or if the patron changed his name or his job, your company's name would change, and you had nothing to say about it. If a group of actors in Shakespeare's day tried to say "We're the Happy Day Players", they would get a visit from the police who would say "Happy Day Players, eh? That means you have no patron" and throw them all in jail.
What were some of the shakespearian actors called?
Your question is vague. Do you mean by "shakespearian actors" actors who have acted on stage in Shakespeare's plays, or do you mean actors who acted on the same stage as William Shakespeare, or do you mean actors who were alive when Shakespeare was? And are you asking for their names (Richard Burbage, David Garrick, Edmund Kean, Sir Henry Irving, Kenneth Branagh are actors who played Shakespeare; Richard Burbage, Will Kempe, Augustine Phillips and Nathan Field were actors who acted with Shakespeare; Richard Burbage, Edward Alleyn and Richard Tarleton were actors when Shakespeare was alive)? Or perhaps you want to know what people called them ("no-good lazy bums" no doubt).

John Heminges and Henry Condell, the two men who published the first Folio.
