You can't change the name label, i think because LV uses it to identify the control. But you can change the caption text which actually looks the same as the name label. First you must make the caption visible and then caption can be selected the same way as label in the property node.

Thanks Kim"
I managed to do it. Yes,the name label cannot be changed but the caption text is possible when selected.
I did it by right-clicking the property node in the REAR(block) diagram. I click on the property and set the caption text. It works now.
Include here a .jpeg file for other newbies!
