Rename a database

Recommended Posts

I have a database that I need to put on another server. I made a backup of the database but it will not restore on the new server because it has a different name for the database. How can I rename my database so it will restore? I have read NOT to use rename database if it is available to me, but i'm not sure what I SHOULD do. Thanks! (The existing database is currently on version 5.0.37)
