Regina,

If it's in a spreadsheet sheet, you can rename the ranges used there by going 
to Sheet tab, dropping down to 

Named Ranges and Expressions...Manage as Mike suggested.

I note when I look through the top menu tabs, that this same phrase appears in 
different places.  Another suggested you were looking to rename database 
ranges, not spreadsheet data.  I just learned how to do this for a sheet I'm 
redesigning.  It seems to work pretty well.

I have a question about indexing a named range but that is a question for 
another topic and I'm new here so I wasn't sure this was the appropriate list.  
Your question touches on the edge of my question...so soon I'll post it.
