Tonya,
   
  Zen names are given when you take the precepts.  Usually that involves some 
sort of precept classes and sewing a raksu.  Then the teacher will either give 
you the name or in some cases they will let you pick a name.

  Does anyone know what a Zen name is and how a person obtains one?
