I'd like to name my familiars (in General)

I'd like to see this feature implemented for little more than helping me interpret my battle play by plays. My example is this:

Ziegelstein's familiar tapped YoYo Ma's familiar [817]
Ziegelstein's familiar draws strength from his weapon! [194]
Ziegelstein bruised YoYo Ma's familiar [1410]
Ziegelstein draws strength from his weapon! [695]

Looking at 10+ lines of this can get quite tiring. Anyone else?

Well, how often do you look at every bit of damage you dealt anyway?
Besides, it really does only take two seconds to look a little closer and see the word "familiar", that and he always attacks first.

Also Jon mentioned item namings coming back in March, perhaps a named tat will also change the familiar's name?

I actually often look at damage dealt by each of my melee minions, and I'd like to be able to scan their damage output more quickly. Two seconds, as you said is too long for someone as impatient as I.

Hopefully your speculation is true; that an item naming would clear up my problem :D
