They will be called The Holy People, Redeemed By the LORD.
Isaiah 62:12 (CEB)

Beloved, Name is the major means of identification. And all get ours names through these major ways.

1.  Through the mouth of the LORD. e.g. Abraham, Gen. 17:5, Sarah. Gen. 17:15,  Cyrus. Isaiah 45:4 etc.
2.  Through the mouth of our parents
3.  Through the mouth of men. e.g. Joshua. Num. 13:16, Peter. John 1:42

Sir, Men don't just give name to fellow human being (I mean their neighbors), for naming sake, but everyone gives according to the personality of the fellow {they are to named}.
Now, God speaking of the new name people will be calling Christian, in book of Isaiah 62:12. saying, we'll be called The Holy People, The Redeemed By the LORD, (CEB). But, let's try to understand that no person will call us by name we refuse to portray. The kind of character we possess as Christians will determine the name we'll be called, because every name goes along with responsibilities and Character to prove it trues. Jesus (God is Salvation) proves His name to the world as true and only way to salvation, and savior. Which is challenging us this days that if truly we must answe this great name God's determined that will be called let's work towards it. For, the Apostles and Early Christians don't get that name by unprincipled means, but through diligence and obedient lifestyle, living like Christ Jesus on earth, showing people that Jesus still exist even after His ascension, through Love, Word, Faith, Prayers and discipline. (Act. 4:13 Acts 11:26)
Therefore beloved, if are to be called "The Holy People and The Redeemed by the LORD" we have to live our life in accordance to the pleasing will of God, following every commandments utilizing and maximizing the grace we obtained through redemption. Working our way up to get this good name prophesied by the Mouth of the Lord and pronounced by mouths of men.

Shalom.
