How to change the name of Dropbox Backup Folder?

My MacBook was unhelpfully added to Dropbox Backup as "Mac (4)" which makes no sense. This isn't even the hostname of that machine.   How do I change the machine name?

    Okay found it's now in a separate area of Dropbox Settings outside of Dropbox Preferences.

     

    Dropbox, why do you make everything so difficult?
