RESTORE DATABASE question

Hello,
I ran the script bellow, then the statsales datbase log and data
"logical" file names changed to those of the database
'statsales_staging_victory_full' which I restored from as shown in the
script bellow.
The questions are:
Do I have one chared log file now, for both statsales and
statsales_staging ?
Will this hurt or confuse anything on the server?
How can I change those names back to there original names?
Thanks for any help.

USE master
RESTORE DATABASE statsales
FROM DISK = 'E:\backup\statsales_staging_victory_ful
l'
WITH REPLACE ,
MOVE 'statsales_staging_dat' TO 'G:\statsales\statsales_Data.MDF',
MOVE 'statsales_staging_log' TO 'D:\statsales_Log\statsales.LDF'
GO
========================================
==========================They don't share a log. I think you are ok. The boundry on the logical
name for database devices (bad memories) is the database.

==========================|||Correct, Christian.
It might also be worth mentioning that in SQL2K, you can rename the logical
filename using ALTER DATABASE.

I'll see how can I change the log names using ALTER DATABASE, I hope
it's something I can do.
Thanks again.
