The company with whom Shakespeare was most closely associated went under three names at various times. It formed as The Lord Chancelor's Men in 1594. It took the name Lord Hunsdon's Men when its original patron died, and resumed its original name when he, too, was made Lord Chamcelor, like his father. In 1603, the name changed to The King's Men to honor their new patron, King James I.
