In 1594 Shakespeare became a charter member of the theatrical company the Lord Chamberlain's Men named for Lord Hunsdon, the Lord Chamberlain, who was the group's sponsor. After the death of Queen Elizabeth in 1603, the new king took up sponsorship of the company and as a result its name was changed to The King's Men. The theatre company had no choice in the matter.

Which theatre company did William Shakespeare join and then change their name?
Shakespeare spent most of his productive life with the same theatre company, which changed its name three times. The names of theatre companies in Shakespeare's day came from the noble or royal patron of the company. The actors were theoretically employed by this patron, although really they were both self-supporting and self-directing. If you work for McDonald's, do you think you can change the name of the company? Of course you can't, and neither could Shakespeare. The first patron of the company was Henry Carey, the Lord Chamberlain, and so it was called The Lord Chamberlain's Men. Mr. Carey died but his son George Carey, Lord Hunsdon took over the patronage, so the company was called Lord Hunsdon's Men. Later he got promoted to Lord Chamberlain, so they became the Lord Chamberlain's Men again. When Queen Elizabeth died her successor James I became patron of the company which naturally was then known as The King's Men.
