We did this in 8.1 and opted to use SQL to do so.  We considered an Atrium
Integrator job and also the Data Wizard.  While the data wizard feature
allows you to rename one at a time, we had 140 sites that had to be updated
to include a translated site name in a foreign language.  We used a series
of SQL searches and Data Wizard investigations to find all the tables where
the site name was located, generally based on the field id.  We don't have
SRM installed and came up with 38 forms, 5 of which we actually had data in
them.  After we wrote and tested the scripts, we had some pretty basic
usability tests that we put into place, all of which passed when we tested
them.
