Renaming Project files

I have a project that my team has been working on for some time (Project name = 'X'). We use TFS as source control.

This project contains a bunch of projects in it (eg. X.Cloud, X.Database, X.WebApi, etc..). We have recently re-branded and re-named the project. I would like the project to no longer be named X, but the new name (say Y) so that my main project is called Y and its sub-projects are named Y.Cloud, Y.Database, Y.WebApi, etc..

I require the system files to be renamed. When I just update the project the files locally will still be named project X and not Y. I want the system files to also be called Y.

I have looked online and attempted the renaming but it failed catastrophically. I wonder if one of you have maybe done this before and have a good guide of doing this.
