Here's an easy way to do it.

1. Rename the VM something totally different.

2. Migrate it to another Host.

3. Change the name to what you want it

4. Migrate it back to the original Host.

As long as you've never had a VM with that name/directory name on that Host, it will name it to the name of the VM.
