Can a Macintosh person tell us how to change the name of a file?

How long, exactly? Anybody know?
OS X had Unicode from the beginning. It was added to the old Mac OS in
8.1 or 8.5, IIRC.
No idea when Windows added it, but I don't think it was there in XP.
They did have support for UTF-16 (WHY?!?!) in Windows 2000. I also know
that Windows 7 does not support UTF-8 and I am reasonably sure that
Windows 10 is still using the vastly inferior UTF-16, but don't know if
UTF-8 is possible.
(Microsoft still claims UTF-16 is the most common Unicode encoding,
which is a flat out lie)
