How to rename WP plugin?

You can change the name by going to the main php file for the plugin. The name and description should be at the top. If you are unsure of which file is the main php file for the plugin just install it and go to the plugin editor. WP will display that file.

Note. If this plugin is from the WP repository, then changing the name is not advised as it will likely break the update engine, and not allow any updates to the plugin in the future
