I think if you open up the Realm tiddler, edit it, and change the tiddler title from the old realm name to a new realm name, you will get a question "Do you want to rename tag "myOldRealmName" in other tiddlers?" or something like that. If you say yes to that, I think it will rename the Realm the way you'd expect.
Of course, that is just renaming the Realm. If you want to select 90% of the things in a realm, and change the realm of just those, this won't help.
