The sad thing is that I just finished a swing move to this "new" server less than 30 days ago. Five days after I got all of the kinks worked out, they tell me I need to change the servername.

Sorry. You can either swing, or simply move to different server. Up to you. Make sure that you don't forget about stuff like Public Folders.

My company was recently purchased by a *much* larger company and therefore I must change the name of my exchange server to fit the parent's nomenclature. Any ideas on how to do this without swinging first? Thanks!
