You can't. If you rename wallet.dat to something else then Multibit can't find it and thus "losing" your coins.

Hi guys,

I'm not satisfied with name of my wallet (using Multibit).
Can I just rename wallet.dat file? Is the name connected somehow with private key?

Wallet already contain some btc, and I don't want to lose them by stupid way.

thanks for answers
