Transformation name change?!

Okay, so I understand that people have talked about an Avalon dungeon glitch where, when you transform into Gamma, your name changes to your pets name. This is not what I'm talking about, but something similar.

Okay, so I've been playing for about two years now. My computer got a bug over the summer that I wasn't able to fix until the school year, so I missed from May-September. Before that, when I used transforms, my character name stayed the same. Now, in December, whenever I use a transformation my name changes to "Belle" no matter what the transformation is. I tried on my other character and it happened to that one as well (hers changed to something else, which I forget). I asked a friend and he said it had happened to him as well at one point.

To clarify: "Belle" isn't my pet's name (it's Luna). That means the "glitch", if it is one, isn't even changing my name to my pet's. So why does my name change when I transform? And why does it always change to the same name? Anyone know? It's driving me nuts!!

Also, when I asked my friends about the name change during the transformations, they said my name was still the same. So to them I was still "Calamity Deathbringer" but on my screen I always turn into "Belle".
