Shared drives now have a standardized naming convention in order for them to be more easily managed and maintained. All shared drive names will now start with the initials of the campus it applies to or the campus where the user is assigned, followed by a dash.
The name of your drive can be anything that makes sense to you and identifies the content however it must have one of the standard prefixes.
Examples:

To rename a shared drive you must be either the creator of the drive or a manager of the drive. If you're part of a shared drive that doesn't have a manager (the user left the district or changed roles), please submit a help ticket and a Google admin can add a manager or change the drive name for you.
