Default Rename User Fields

You cannot rename existing fields, but can use any existing field or create new ones with your own names.

Default Rename User Fields

Look on the All FIelds page of an individual item, in the Field Chooser for any table view, or in the Fields dialog for modifying views. All of those locations have a New button.
