The SmartCenter object name is related with the hostname of the Smartcenter machine, and the hostname is related with the Certificate Authority that allows for SIC to take place between your Smartcenter, the firewall modules and even your SmartConsole. If you change the hostname, the certificate authority gets corrupted.
To be honest I do not have the best procedure to follow in case you MUST change that hosts name, but I can tell you it could become a really big headache. Unless you really MUST do that change, I would honestly suggest leaving it as it is. If you do, maybe another one of the guys here, has a good and safe procedure to follow, which I would too like to be aware of.
