    I am using the WordPress template "scruffy" and want to change only the name of my home page from "home" to the name of my blog. I do not need to change the content or anything else-just the name.

    Thanks!

    You have to edit your header, specifically the place where your navigation is located. Replace home with the following code:

    <?php bloginfo('name'); ?>

    Thanks Darran. Unfortunately, I am new to all of this and don't even know how to get into my header coding. When I visit my CPanel, and click on "header" I don't see any code that uses the word "home." I should mention that I do not see all of the wp files in my File Manager since I did the one click install with Fantastico de Luxe. Therefore, I may be missing some files..Is there anywhere else I can access those?

    You have to go into your theme directory and edit the theme's header.php.

    It should be located under wp-content/themes/<theme-name>
