Hello, John, thanks for you reply!

The renaming is just a way that popped out in the conversation as a way to
achieve a goal. The goal is to control the way a variable is REPRESENTED. I
don't want to rename the thing. I certainly don't want to pervert the thing or
harm it in any way. :)
Let me give you a C++ example, since Python would take me a half hour :)
class SageObject {
string m_name;
string m_latex_repr;
public:
void rename( string new_name ); // we all know this and don't want to pervert
it
void changeRepr( string new_repr ); // does this method exist?
};
