How to Change the Name of Companion Pets in "World of Warcraft"
In "World of Warcraft," it is possible to change the name of a hunter's pet companions. Changing these names allows a hunter to keep track of which pets are which, and gives the player the ability to customize their experience that much further. When first tamed, the Hunter's pet will automatically be given a name. The game allows the player to change the pet's name once after taming to customize it. After the initial change in name, a special item known as the Certificate of Ownership is required to further change the name.
