(to get for example C__ade4_RVrandtestCpp) in the RcppExports.R file. So where 
should I modify the Rcpp::export tag ?

Just how I wrote it below: inside the parens of the Rcpp::export tag.

A full worked example is

   #include <Rcpp.h>

   // [[Rcpp::export(C_foo)]]
   bool foo() {
     return true;
   }

   /*** R
   C_foo()
   */


which when I sourceCpp() it does indeed do as it is told:

   > Rcpp::sourceCpp("/tmp/foo.cpp")

   > C_foo()
   [1] TRUE
   > 

A quick grep here did not reveal an actual example of where I prefix with C_
but for example in the RcppSimdJson package we use this a little bit to
massage function names and control what is, or isn't, visible and exported on
the R side:

   edd@rob:~/git$ grep Rcpp::export rcppsimdjson/src/*cpp
   rcppsimdjson/src/deserialize.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.deserialize_json)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/deserialize.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.load_json)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/deserialize.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.exceptions_enabled)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/exported-utils.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(is_valid_json)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/exported-utils.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(is_valid_utf8)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/exported-utils.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(fminify)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/internal-utils.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.is_valid_json_arg)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/internal-utils.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.is_valid_query_arg)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/internal-utils.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.diagnose_input)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/rcppsimdjson_utils_check.cpp:// 
[[Rcpp::export(.check_int64)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/simdjson_example.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.validateJSON)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/simdjson_example.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/simdjson_example.cpp:// [[Rcpp::export(.cppVersion)]]
   rcppsimdjson/src/simdjson_example.cpp:// 
[[Rcpp::export(.unsupportedArchitecture)]]
   edd@rob:~/git$ 

Hope this helps,  Dirk
