BTDT William but you'll have to change its name in the directory using
the usual set D7 of the last char of its name in both the directory entry
with dEd, and also in the programs file header so they match both places.
And when changing the files name, press v for verify which will update
the saved changes header parity, and the files CRC on the disk.
