Hi Thomas,
I forgot to search for some new config option on the man page
before asking here. Thanks.
This corrected the icon name issue.
But utf8Title xterm resource still gives problem; slightly different. Now,
when I open the first time the xterm the icon shows the window title and it
changes to the icon name just after the first cd (change dir command).
With utf8Title set to false works perfectly. It's probably XTerm fault because
it doesn't happen with rxvt-unicode.
