Renaming layers
As you add layers to an image, you may find it convenient to rename them so that they are easy to identify on the Layers palette.
To rename a layer
Edit workspace 
1 On the Layers palette, click the layer you want to rename, pause a moment, and click again.
The name appears highlighted in a box.
2 Type the new name in the box, and press Enter.
You can also rename a layer by double-clicking the layer to display the Layer Properties dialog box and typing a new name in the Name box.
