You can change a symbol name using the Global Script (Tools -> Script Editor):

Symbols.RenameSymbol("SAY", "SAYCY");

Thanks. Will it also change the name of the symbol that is associated with custom databases?

Only the Quotes database. In the new version (in few days), when a symbol is renamed, tick, intraday and custom databases will be updated as well.

In version 2.0.1, when you change a symbol name, the tick/intraday and custom databases are changed too.
