Here's an example of a CREATE TABLE where you can define the names of
Primary key.Unique key or Check Constraints - so that the indexes are not
Oracle defaults - but what you specify !!
Also,you can use the following to rename index names
ALTER INDEX <index name> RENAME TO <new index name> ;

CREATE TABLE CCAS.CCAS_PAYOR (
LAST_UPDATED_BY VARCHAR2(35),
LAST_UPDATED_DATE DATE,
FEDERAL_ID VARCHAR2(20),
FIRST_TRANS DATE,
LAST_CASHED_TRANS DATE,
CONSTRAINT CCAS_CCPYR_START_END_C1
CHECK ( START_DATE <= END_DATE ) ,
CONSTRAINT CCAS_CCPYR_ROUTE_ACCOUNT_U1
UNIQUE (ROUTE, ACCOUNT) USING INDEX
TABLESPACE CCPYR_INDX PCTFREE 10,
CONSTRAINT CCAS_CCPYR_PAYORID_PK
PRIMARY KEY ( PAYOR_ID )
USING INDEX
TABLESPACE CCPYR_INDX PCTFREE 10)
TABLESPACE CCPYR_DATA

When I create tables with primary keys, Oracle gives the indexes a default
name.
Can I rename these indexes with meaningful names, or do I need to drop and
recreate my tables, amending create table statements to explicitly name the
indexes?
