I'm pretty sure that everything just updates to your new name. Everything ties to your GUID (that string of 20 or so characters at the end of your URL when looking at your log) so your name is just called from a property based on that.

Blaine is correct. If there's a field in a form for something, then you can safely change the data associated with the field.
