There is no way to rename a measurement currently. There's an open feature request <https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/4155>, but it's a significant challenge, as the measurement string is part of the index.
The only workaround is to export and reimport the data. There is no easy export tool currently available although one should be coming in the next month or so.
