    Hi croqueteer, thanks for posting here today! 

     

    Renaming your Dropbox folder isn't something doable at the moment, I'm afraid. 

     

    However, please keep in mind that we listen to your needs because it allows us to fully appreciate how Dropbox fits into and influences your daily routine.

     

    Your comments on our website have been quite valuable, and I will do everything I can to ensure that your voice is heard.

     

    Thanks!
