  2. Perform one of the following actions:
    • Double-click the name of the column.
    • Use the Rename column option in the column contextual menu.
  3. Enter email_first_name as new column name and press Enter to apply it.
  4. Repeat these steps to rename the last_name_copy column as email_last_name.

Results

The selected columns are renamed.
