    To rename a table in MySQL you need to execute the following command:

    RENAME TABLE old_table_name TO new_table_name;

    The old_table_name must exist n the database and the new_table_name must not. For example, we have a table name demo and we want to change its name as demo1. So we will execute the following MySQL statement to rename it:

    RENAME TABLE demo TO demo1
    You can also rename multiple tables using RENAME TABLE statement in MySQL as follows: 
    RENAME TABLE old_table_name_1 TO new_table_name_2,
             old_table_name_2 TO new_table_name_2,...
    rename single and multiple table in MySQL rename a table in MySQL
