Apple Maps: Renaming Favorites or Marked Locations
To rename favorites in Maps on macOS (source):
- Click on the magnifying glass in the search field
- Click Favorites
- Click "Edit" in the bottom right
- Click on a Favorite's name to modify it
- Press return or click out of the editing field, then click "Done"
To rename favorites in Maps on iOS:
- Swipe up the "card" at the bottom that contains recent locations
- Scroll to the bottom and tap on "Favorites"
- Swipe from right to left across the favorite whose name you want to change, then tap "Edit Name"
- Enter a new name, then tap "Save"
I've tried both of these methods on macOS 10.14.2 and iOS 12.1.2 and confirmed that they both work.
