I had to change my Finder preferences to display them first. Then I could change them either by clicking on the name or changing it in the info window. I never was able to find a way to do it in the Disk Utility. Thanks for your forbearance for another dumb question. For some reason I'd recalled there was a trick to it. But maybe that was a recollection from my experiences with earlier Mac OS versions. In OSX it is a snap. Thanks, John
