Changing my Finder 'House' name?

[wfoster]

In the left side of your Finder, you have the different locations. Where the house icon is, under Places, how do I change the name of it?

Thank you.
Wesley.

It doesn't look easy...

You can change it, but it is a pain, and there is a lot of things on the computer that depend on that name, so changing it could have some negative repercussions. If it really needs to be changed, then I would do a time machine backup, and reinstall the OS.
