How can I change my Resource Group name

I have created a resource group in azure and also deployed few resources in it. Now, I am thinking of having a name which is semantical in nature. Can I do that?

As a matter of fact, Azure simply won't allow you to change the name of a resource group name once it is created, for a logical reason, i.e, all the resources under that particular resource group will be indexed to it's own resource group ID. 
Instead, you can move the resources into a NEW resource group. You can do this through multiple ways:

> Through Portal:

   -  In the group's resources blade, you can use the "Move" tab

 

  - Clicking the "Move" tab will allowing you to choose or create a new group:

> Through PowerShell:

- Simply, you can use the Move-AzureRmResource powershell cmdlet:

Get-AzureRmResource -ResourceGroupName <sourceResourceGroupName> | Move-AzureRmResource -DestinationResourceGroupName <destResourceGroupName>
