Seen on Seventh.
If you enter multiple wolf names under character options, all the wolves use the first name in the list.
Tested by removing the first name from character options, them re-adding it on the bottom. All the wolves switched from that to the new top name on subsequent summonings.

Re: Wolf Names
Devil's advocate mode:
While in this particular case this smells like a bug, I can also imagine cases where it would be a feature - what if a player does not want to give each pet an unique name but just to mass-rename all pets to a custom "type' (e.g. "Dire Wolf" instead of just plain Wolf).

Re: Wolf Names
This has been a problem for some time. From what I understand, it happens any time multiple pets get summoned at the same time; the game just grabs the first name on the list and assigns it to all the pets. I'm guessing that Brothers Bond Aethersprites and Stygian Murder Wasps probably have the same issue.
I'd like to see it fixed, and (preferably) get an option to have random names assigned rather than just the first on the list, but I felt that working on the upcoming Breath 6 was probably a higher priority.

Re: Wolf Names
After looking over the code that governs this, the difficulty level of addressing the issue is unfortunately "do a substantial rewrite of most of summon code".
