Where is the name of project stored?

Hello,

Sorry, could you please clarify a bit? Do you mean that project is created with some old name automatically?

Yaroslav Bedrov , sorry for the confusion. Step by step: 

1. Create new Java project with name “FirstName".  A project directory (content root) with .idea will appear. And a module (FirstName) .iml will also appear in that directory.
2. Change Project name via Project Structure/Project Settings/Project/Project for “SecondName”. 
3. .name with “SecondName” is created. 
4. After that I can assert: “Project name is stored in .name”.
5. But where is the project name stored until renaming? Is it just feature IntellijIDEA? 
6. If my question is silly - please, feel free to call it silly.

Could you please clarify where you set “Project name is stored in .name”? 

2020.1

Thanks! Pretty old version is used. In newer versions name is stored in XML file in “<configuration_folder>/workspace”.

Yaroslav Bedrov understood, thank you so much.

You are welcome!
