    Hello, Mecenas666,

    You can read about a child theme here – https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/#customizing-your-child-theme
    Theme name can be changed via the style.css file of the child theme and screenshot.png can be replaced in the child theme folder – https://prnt.sc/1IOwbeudKARs

    Hello, Mecenas666,

    Theme update affects parent theme.

    If you rename the parent theme folder then you can’t automatically update the theme. We recommend not changing the parent theme folder name, use the default one. Child theme name could be any you need.
