Hi Sieghard, Thanks for your response. I was able to rename folders in the way you mention, but somehow I am still having the issue that apparently resulted from how I originally tried to rename the folder.
The name I had given my folder was "Cooking". Even though I have deleted that folder, it still says "Cooking" before the first app name when I open any folder, before saying "Page 1 of 4" on my home screen, etc. Also, even though I had originally renamed the folder on my iPad, this behavior has propogated itself to my iPhone as well. Do you have any thoughts as to how I can stop Voiceover from saying the word "Cooking" where it should not? It is a bit distracting. Thanks again for your help.

You can just open the folder, double tap and hold on any of the apps inside said folder and then find the folder name by swiping all the way left, double tap to get into the folder name edit field, then delete what's there and type in anything you like. If you want an app name to read differently you have to use custom labels, but folder names can be edited/renamed.

I had created a folder on my iPad and did the two finger double tap and hold to give it a custom label. The label I gave it was "Cooking". When I exited the folder, I noticed it was now saying "Cooking" before saying the first app name in other folders, before saying the name of the first app on my home sdcreen, before saying "Page 1 of 4", etc. This behavior is now also happening on my iPhone 6. I tried deleting the label, removing the cooking folder, and restarting my iPad, but nothing seems to help. Can anyone tell me where I went wrong or how to fix this?
