Thanks

Right-click on them and choose "Rename."

Care to be more informative?
Do you wish to change the Icon:

Or left click on the text and it will be selected and changeable.

And just for fun, I just highlighted an icon and pressed F2. That works
too.

This being Windows, maybe there are seven other methods as well :-)
