Hi Brandon, It is possible if you are you are using myisam or DBD table types, but you have to rename the directory from the Unix shell prompt. There is not yet a RENAME DATABASE command (althought it is on the todo list) and no way that I know of (short of renaming each table if you only have a few tables) of renaming a INNODB table. This is not to be done lightly.
Remember to shutdown the server before raming the directory and change any permissions (GRANT) that might be applicable. The rename the directory then restart the server.
