+4. Rename your codespace for easier identification:
+
+By default, your codespace will have a randomly generated name. Renaming it to
+something descriptive — such as referencing the issue or feature you’re working
+on makes it much easier to find and manage your codespaces, especially if
+you use several.
+
+To rename your codespace:**
+
+- Open your [GitHub Codespaces dashboard](https://github.com/codespaces) in
+  your browser.
+- Find the codespace you just created (it will show the repository name and
+  the current random display name).
+- Click the ellipsis (**...**) next to your codespace to open the options menu.
+- Select **Rename** from the dropdown.
+- Enter a descriptive new display name (e.g., `r-dev-env-issue-229` or
+  `r-dev-env-patch-naming`) and confirm.

+> **Tip:**
+> You can rename your codespace at any time. The display name is
+  for your convenience and does not affect your code or environment.
