1. delete the cloned template.

Question:

- the existing AppVMs that are already based on a template with
that name, will they now just continue to work against the new
clone, or is there anything else than the template NAME that
affects the link between AppVMs and their templates?

Qubes won't let you delete a template while AppVMs are still based on
it. You'll have to temporarily switch those one or two AppVMs to a
different template, delete the one you don't want, clone the one you
want, then switch them to the new clone.
Or, to avoid switching AppVM's template multiple times, one could:

1. clone template (under temporary name)
2. switch AppVMs to the new template
3. delete the old template
4. rename cloned template to the final name


Thanks for the explanation. 1-3 is probably enough unless the original name is important for some reason.
