If you're working with a rigged model in Blender, chances are you'll need to rename some of the bones at some point. Maybe you're working with a character that has multiple outfits, and you need to distinguish between the different sets of bones. Or maybe you're just not happy with the default names and want to change them to something more descriptive.

Whatever the reason, renaming bones in Blender is actually pretty easy. Just select the bone you want to rename in Pose Mode, and then press F2. This will open up a Rename Bone dialog box where you can enter the new name.

One thing to keep in mind is that you can't use spaces in bone names, so if you want to use multiple words, you'll need to use underscores or some other character to separate them.

That's all there is to it! Renaming bones in Blender is quick and easy, and can really help you keep your projects organized.
