Well netjunky... depends what name you want to change.

I will guess it is the name that appears in the drop-down menu when you click on Player Aircraft > Change / Modify.... This one, you will find in the aircraft.cfg file within the "aircraft container" (the aircraft folder). It will say something like that;

[fltsim.0]
title=Messerschmitt Bf 109E
sim=Bf109e
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
checklists=Bf109e_CHECK

The name is in red. This file should open with any TXT prog.

Sorry, I think I caught a virus from P&W.

Pourquoi?

A lot depends on what name and why you want to change it. I am no expert, but there at least three names for your aircraft. And there are at least that many more locations where the name appears. It would be helpful for us to know what you want to do. I understand a person has a right to do whatever they want in the privacy of their own home... No sorry, that no longer applies to people living in the Unites States.

Well it would help to know which name you want to change.
