my understanding ...

Is that purebreds' names are supposed to be connected to their parents' names and the breeder or kennel. The only example I can think of is somebody I knew had a purebred yellow Lab named Brittany, and Brittany's full name was Brittany Marie Mixie, Mixie being one of the mother dog's names; if I recall the mother dog was named Bridget Marie Mixie, or some arrangement.
So you might get something like Rocky Ridge's Teddy-Bear Aloysius, with the name of the kennel/farm and maybe the father's name was Aloysius, but you always call your own dog Bear.
I think, therefore I judge.

It would be a rescue pet

I once had a purebred that I registered just giving her three names that I'd chosen, so I don't think what you're referring to is mandatory. I didn't get her from a kennel or a professional breeder.. I don't know if that makes a difference.
