In MySQL It is possible to rename a table using the following:
        
        
            
                
                
                    ALTER TABLE old_name RENAME new_name;
                
            
            
        
    Alternatively you can use the following:
        
        
            
                
                
                    RENAME TABLE old_name TO new_name;
                
            
            
        
    Example
To rename the table info to changed_info:
        
        
            
                
                
                    ALTER TABLE info RENAME changed_info;
                
            
            Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
