I agree with Mike. The ONLY SUPPORTED way to rename a virtual SQL name is to uninstall and reinstall as documented in Microsoft Knowledge Base article
INF: How to Change a Clustered SQL Server Network Name
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307336
This article has the following important NOTE
"Cluster Administrator provides a method to rename cluster resources. To do this, right-click the resource in Cluster Administrator and click Rename. However, if you
rename the SQL Server Network Name resource, a variety of situations could occur, the most critical being that the SQL Server virtual server instance may no longer come
online. "
