A page in my app shows a picture of the user's pet, I'm trying to add a label above the picture that will contain the pet's name. I'm a computer science student who is really bad at UI and am having a difficult time making this label fit in with the rest of the page.

Since the background is white I made the label's text color black to stand out, but it looks pretty bad in my opinion. Here's a picture of the page:



Can anybody please help a non-UI-savy student make the label above the picture look less like crap?

Edit: Here's the improved version thanks to user287001's suggestions:

Even a little decorative font for the name is a must. The bones, hearts etc. background stuff should be faded under the name. The name should be in big size, reduce it only if needed due the space limitations.



Hopefully you have quite a big selection of background, frame and text styles for different personalities.

The maximum readability of the name is secondary. The user surely knows the name. The presentation of his pet in a pleasant (for the user) style is most important.

Under Construction: This area might be used better by telling something about the pet. The confiquring tasks should not steal this much space from the main screen.
