Right click -> Rename

That's what you need to do.

I dunno to what to rename to

You are going to need to choose four letters to define your character's sprites. You can use PLAY, like the wiki does as an example, but that (in my experiece) always ends up replacing Sonic's sprites as well, so I would give it a different name.
THIS MUST BE FOUR LETTERS.
Ex: Sonic's is PLAY, Knux's is KNUX, etc.
After that, you will give the sprite a letter based on what the sprite represents the character doing (which letter corresponds to what action can be found here :P http://www.srb2wiki.sepwich.com/wiki/Character_WAD under "frame list").

From that point, give the sprite a value based on its rotation (also in the above link at "the naming system and rotations." that nifty pic of tails helps).

Tadaa!
