I found this on the Wiki
Bug.Sometimes when a pet evolves, its name will not update until it is reset with the /petname (or /namepet) command.
And for further reading if desired.
you can level a pet without evolving it, which happens whe it neither deals nor receives any damage. usually you can achieve that by either setting him to avoid combat or to get him stuck somewhere and then kill mobs in compass range. the resulting pet is technically like an elder one concerning damage size etc. the only useful application I'd be aware of is getting an unevolved warthog, because those are the only pets that deal blunt damage, which certain foes are susceptible to. means if you want the best pet for such foes you'd have to level a warthog without evolving it.

I think death leveling an aggroed ambient creature low lvl warthog *then* charming it at level 20 will also end up with an unevolved lvl 20 pet.
I also dont think you have to be in compass range for the pet to level up. I have had instances where it leveled up and I was nowhere near it. Not sure though, been awhile since I had a low level pet xD
