Hello,

Thank you for your question on renaming your cPanel. You are not able to rename your cPanel if you are on a shared server. These are created by an algorithm and are not changeable once they are created. If you are on a VPS or dedicated, you have the tool named 'modify an account' within the WHM (Web Host Manager) that allows you to change the name.

Kindest Regards,
