For show dogs the pedigree is important. The names are usually convoluted descriptions of the dogs ancestry and are a way to be very specific (they don't want an arena full of Buddys and Princes). Plus it sounds snootier.
The curious can find a little more info here. Turns out Spider's betta's name would be (believe it or not) too long for the AKC.
