Hii guys here is a solution ..

If it is a ntfs partition ..

Here is what you have to do

*sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs*

then.. if you want to rename */dev/sdb5* then ,

Unmount the partition
*sudo umount /dev/sdb5

*Then ,
*sudo ntfslabel /dev/sdb5 Your_Name

*Here replace  Your_Name with the actual name that you want
