Mohammad, >From previous experience, given the title of a tiddler is its key, and when editing anything about a tiddler especially its title it is handled with a draft.of tiddler and draft.of title until commiting changes. I would recommend simply cloning the old tiddler to the newly named tiddler using an appropriate new tiddler action which will add an increment if the result already exists, and you can freely delete the original tiddler. You can even take steps to preserve the created date if you must.
