The name of a play project is configured in the configuration file conf/application.conf inside the project directory.

Therefore to change the name of a play project, search for the line application.name= (it should be one of the first lines) and change it to whatever you want and run play eclipsify again. The name should be changed in eclipse now as well (Maybe you have to delete and reimport the project again so it finally works).
