Hi Christian thank you for your input.

This works let $i:=(doc("FitnessCenter.xml")//Name)[1] return rename node $i as QName('http://www.gym.com', "Name”) with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8”?> <FitnessCenter> <Member Level="platinum"> <Name>Jeff</Name> <FavoriteColor>lightgrey</FavoriteColor> </Member> </FitnessCenter> This not declare namespace gym='http://www.mygym.com'; let $i:=(doc("FitnessCenter.xml")//gym:Name)[1] return rename node $i as QName('http://www.gym.com', "Name”) with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8”?> <FitnessCenter xmlns="http://www.mygym.com";> <Member Level="platinum"> <Name>Jeff</Name> <FavoriteColor>lightgrey</FavoriteColor> </Member> </FitnessCenter> Why should that conflict?
