That renames the table itself.

ALTER TABLE tbl_name CHANGE old_name new_name column_definition

where column_definition is how you defined the column when you created
it.  For example if you have a table

CREATE TABLE xyz
(
     c CHAR(30) NOT NULL
)

Then you can rename c to d like this:

ALTER TABLE xyz CHANGE c d CHAR(30) NOT NULL

To answer your next question :-), no, you can't do it without
repeating the column definition.
