The real answer (as stated in a similair question)-
When King Richard I ("The Lionheart") came to the throne he adopted his personal arms as three golden lions on a red field. The origin of these arms is thought to be based on the earlier Norman arms. According to one tradition, the extra lion was added to two existing Norman lions to represent the combined Anglo-Norman realm. According to another tradition the two leopards were combined with the single leopard of Aquitaine on the acquisition of these continental territories by the English Crown. Other heraldic authorities have claimed that at an early stage in the development of heraldry the number of Norman lions was not fixed and that it is simply a matter of design as to why England has ended up with three heraldic lions and Normandy with two.

I don't believe they have names, they are taken from the Royal Standard of the Sovereign of the United Kingdom, specifically that part representing the Kingdom of England.

Useless, more useless & even more useless. Their names were inspired by the pathetic display the current England team showed in Germany!
