It would be better to do it under core properties in the control panel

I think what chris is suggesting is changing the 'Project Name' in core properties. Cheers! -- Smug

For Android I think this will work. In Eclipse, look in /res/values/strings.xml and edit the definition for the string app_name: <string name="app_name">Your app name</string>

For IOS, look in Xcode for the info.plist file - I think you need to edit the value for PRODUCT_NAME
