    The only way you can achieve that currently (assuming it's a secondary vault and not your primary vault—which can't be renamed in any event) is to:

    1. create a new secondary vault with the name you want;
    2. move the items from the existing "wrongly" named secondary vault to the new secondary vault; then
    3. delete the original "wrongly" named secondary vault.

    Hi @sherry5659,

    I do apologise as Stephen_C is correct, we don't have an easy way of renaming a vault from the UI at the moment.

    Stephen_C's suggestion will work but if you're sharing that vault with somebody else it will mess up syncing a bit. In the case that you're sharing or syncing the vault and you have an Agile Keychain then another approach would be to delete the vault entirely. As it's being synchronised you know the data is in the Agile Keychain and when you either double click on the Agile Keychain or drag and drop the Agile Keychain onto the 1Password icon in the dock to add the vault back to 1Password it will bring up a window where you will have an opportunity to rename the vault as it appears in your copy of 1Password.

    While both are workarounds I hope one of those can work for you in the absence of a UI option to do so.
