If you click the icon next to the name you can change the network name and the icon that is displayed in that window.

Yeah, the only hint is your mouse cursor will change to a hand symbol. Most people will click the blue text or try right clicking the icon and then do a WTF head scratch.

I think you can also do this from a Command Prompt:

netsh interface set interface name="dkm" newname="New Name Here"
