Merging Objects

I am trying to figure outwhat happens when I merge two objects. For example I have two boxes called 'red' and 'blue' when I merge them sometimes the resulting object is called 'red', sometimes 'blue' . Why?

What are the factors that control how the merge functions? If the resulting object is 'blue', does that mean that the 'red' vertices have been added to the end of the 'blue'?

If I want to combine objects so that the vertices of one object are the start of the list and as I merge more and more objects the vertices are added to the end, what is best way of doing it?
