Michael,

Did this just the other day.  Once you've created a new group, make sure you on 
that particular "Untitled Group" in the appropriate table.  Then, under the 
edit option on the menu bar, you will find a "Rename Group" option.  Select it 
& you are magically transported to an edit box for your previously selected 
"Untitled Group," where you can change the group's name to anything you choose. 
 

Hope this helps,

CJ
