How Can One Change the Name of a Region?

Is there any way to change the name of a region once it has been created?

Thanks,

You can't. You would need to leave that region and create a new one under the new name.

The mods can change the name of a region, but they only do it if the region name is deemed offfensive.

Or if you have regions like:

Europe.
Europe .
Europe .
Europe .
_-Europe-_

Or something equally annoying.

Which we do by creating a new region and moving everyone over to it and then replacing the regional log with the old one.

Geez, is that really the easiest way to do it?

I thought SQL could do a find/replace...
