got new pet, wanted to see evolutions

but he keeps the old name of my other pet
is there no way to give him the "hearthy wolf or elder or whatever" name back again?

You can change your pets name as many times as you want.

I dont think that was the question, and I believe that the answer is presently "no", if you remane your pet, you will be unable to see the evolution prefixes for it, and any subsequent pet.

Thing is if you don't rename it, it might get confused if there is more than one ranger with the same type of pet. Anet should fix this. I managed to figure out my pet's evolution though it was far from straightforward - Elder Melandru Stalker

yay new update:
# You can now remove your pet's name by typing "/petname" and not providing a name.

Can anyone confirm this? I don't want too risk adding a name too my pet and not been able too see it's future evolutions.

that was a statement made by the dev on their official web page... so, yes... it better work.

I tested it yesterday. It works just fine. My pet's name returned to default and then I renamed him again.

I have a playful warthog.
