Because aura enchantments grant an ability to another card, you'll have to name the card that the ability is being granted to by the aura. In other words, the creature that Shade's Form is enchanting, not Shade's Form itself. This article explains it pretty nicely:

Hope this helps!

You would have to name the creature that has been enchanted since it is what has the activated ability. Shade's Form 's only abilities are a static ability granting the creature an ability, and a triggered ability.
