It’s a display setting that’s only good for the life of that tab. Close the tab and it’s discarded. If you leave the tab open and quit GnuCash or load a different account then the changed name will be saved with the other tab information in the state file (your-book.gnucash.gcm in GNC_USER_DATA) and will be restored with the tab when you reload that book.
