You know how you have to enter a name for your iPod when you install the drivers? Anyway I can rename it?

yep, reflash the Ipod to the original state. Essentially start over.

Well, now for the [id82489afd7]helpful[/id82489afd7] response...

When you have the iPod connected to upload music, you'll see on the left side of the iTunes window that your iPod is listed with the name you've given it. Much like you'd change the name of a song, a song's author, genre, etc, you change the name of the iPod. With it selected, click twice on the name (but not a double click- click once, wait 3-5 seconds, click again). It should come up for you to change it at that point.

No reformat necessary.
