If you don't have Eclipse installed, you should do it asap, see http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/eclipse-adt.html for more information.

Then you can open AndroidManifest.xml and go to the Application Tag where you can edit the Label.

Yes -in the manifest file and strings.xml

AndroidManifest.xml For the application tag provide the following attribute

android:label="@string/app_name"

res\values\strings.xml

string name="app_name">MyApp

You can avoid strings.xml instead insert the name in the manifest - it is not a good way to do - it may hurt you later (during localization)
