Renaming a Docker container involves multiple steps:

1. Stop the running container:

\`\`\` docker stop \`\`\` Replace `` with the ID of your container.

1. Rename the container:

\`\`\` docker rename \`\`\` Replace `` with the ID of your container and `` with the new name you want to assign to the container.
