Docker – Name is already in use by container

Running the docker registry with below command always throws an error:

dev:tmp me$ docker run \
     -d --name registry-v1 \
     -e SETTINGS_FLAVOR=local \
     -e STORAGE_PATH=/registry \
     -e SEARCH_BACKEND=sqlalchemy \
     -e LOGLEVEL=DEBUG \
     -p 5000:5000 \
     registry:0.9.1
Error response from daemon: Conflict. The name "registry-v1" is already in use by container f9e5798a82e0. You have to delete (or rename) that container to be able to reuse that name.

How can I prevent this error ?
