The "mvall" command changes the name of old_name to new_name. This will also change any references to old_name that may appear in other combinations in the database. The [[MGED_CMD_mv|mv]] command will change an object’s name without changing references to it. The [[MGED_CMD_prefix|prefix]] command will also change the names and references of objects.
