These are from my academic understanding, first try on a test installation before you do these in much serious environments:

One options is to rename solr directoy name and auto discovery (core.properties) name as

name=collection1

For example rename collection1 to mycollection and edit core.properties as

name=mycollection

and restart your server.

Another option is to use collection aliasing:

http://host:port/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATEALIAS&name=newname&collections=oldnme

This is meant for advance use but you can try this.
