The only name changing I'm aware of is as described in the Palm OS
Companion: 

"NOTE: Whenever possible give the same name to the .prc file
and to the database. If the .prc filename differs from the
database name, and the user copies your application from the
card to the handheld and then to another card, the filename may
change. This is because the database name is used when an
application is copied from the handheld to the card."
