They didn't change their name--it was changed for them when their patron changed or when his job changed. In fact their name changed several times: From the Lord Chamberlain's Men to Lord Hunsdon's Men when the Lord Chamberlain died and his son Lord Hunsdon took over patronage of the company, from Lord Hunsdon's Men to the Lord Chamberlain's Men when Hunsdon became Lord Chamberlain like his father, and from the Lord Chamberlain's Men to The King's Men when King James I took over patronage of the company. The partners in the company had nothing to say about it.
