It should be as simple as changing all uses of the text 'reference' to 'ref' and 'Reference' to 'Ref' plus renaming the files and folders. That is assuming you have not used the text 'reference' anywhere else of course. I would advise committing to your source control system first and then if it is a disaster for some unforeseen reason you can just revert.
