To do this, you need to follow the instructions numbered above, but once you have selected the route (Step 2), you will need to click on Route once more at the bottom of your screen (it should be highlighted blue at this point).

A menu will then appear, giving you the option to view the details of your route. Click “Details” and then you will be able to simply click on the route name and change it to whatever you like.
