From Names Window
Let's say that we have entered some data manually below and we want to rename the variables.

Select Names from Data Manipulation menu, click on variable c1 and type "id" in the text input field, then hit the Enter key. This will change the name of the variable to id.

From Calculate Window
Select Calculate from Data Manipulation menu. Click on the variable that you want to rename.

Then use Ctrl-N. A small window shown below will appear. You can now type a new name for the variable and click on Rename. That is all.
