Why did shakespeare change the lord chamberlains men to the kings men?

Shakespeare did not make the change. Even if the company could have the right to change the name, Shakespeare did not have the right to speak for the company--Richard Burbage was its leader not Shakespeare.
The name was changed by King James I. When he came to the throne, he took over patronage of the company. When the patron changed, the name changed.
