Afaik the name is directly taken from the font (part of its resources).
Should be no problem to change this attribute with fontforge.

See

http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry/tex-gyre#Licensing

for the licensing conditions. At first glance there should be no
problems (but better read the whole license).

[..]
"The freedoms granted by GFL include the free use of the fonts for
whatever purpose you wish. You can also take the fonts and modify them
for your own use or redistribution, but to avoid confusion in such a
case you are requested to change the name(s) of the font(s) and
comprising files—please follow the guidance of the license."
