htaccess protect and rename phpmyadmin folder

i protect my phpmyadmin installation with htaccess. But now i want to rename the url www.myurl.com/phpmyadmin in www.myurl.com/othername and send a 404 response when a user calls /phpmyadmin.

Is it possible to do that with a rewrite condition?

Thank you for helping

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^phpmyadmin does_not_exist.html  # create 404 response
RewriteRule ^othername(/.*)?$ phpmyadmin$1   # rewrite othername to phpmyadmin

You could also send a 410 Gone response. Replace the first RewriteRule with this:

RewriteRule ^phpmyadmin - [G]
