It's easy enough.
1. Create a grand staff.
2. Open the Instrument Names dialog from the control F1 dialog.
3. Select the grand staff in the list of instruments.
4. Enter the new full name and short name in the edit boxes.
5. Choose OK.
This changes the staff name.
The only problem is that the instrument names may be set to none which means
that they won't be visible on screen. To turn them on you need to do the
following:
1. Open the engraving rules dialog (CONTROL+SHIFT+E).
2. The first list after the OK button determines which page is visible.
Choose instruments.
3. In the combo box titled "instrument names at start" choose full.
4. In the combo box titled "instrument names subsequently" choose short.
5. OK the dialog.
The instrument names should now be showing.
The new name of the grand staff should be positioned half way between the
two staves of the grand staff.
(Wow, there's a tongue twister.)

Hi Stefan,
I'm 99% certain that the name has been adjusted correctly on screen. The
fact that both staves have different names now is an internal concern only.
I'll update the plug-in to change the internal names on both staves for
neatness, but I don't think you have anything to worry about.
Just to be on the safe side, I'm checking this with a few other plug-in
developers. If it turns out that I've got this wrong then I'll update the
plug-in as part of the next release.

Hi, I want to change the name "Harpsichord" indo "Basso Continuo". If I do
that with the instrument name dialog, I only can rename the right hand. If I
navigate to the left hand, Jaws still says "Harpsichord". Can you help me?
