No can do. You can make a new nation with the name you want.

Unfortunately if we were able to have a name change, that would require a TON of code which would make the feature practically impossible. You would have to make a new nation to rename it, and you can't transfer national stats and features to another nation, so I would recommend not to bother really.

[violet] can you explain in more detail please.

The code uses nation names rather than ID numbers to identify them. Changing a nation's name therefore would cause it to drop out of its region, dossiers, the WA, and anything else related to it. This is stupid but would require a lot of work to fix.
