    you'll need to modify this query with your names:

    EXEC sp_dropserver 'OldServerName' 
    EXEC sp_addserver 'NewServerName', 'local'

    after that, there will be a difference in @@servername until you can stop and restart the SQL service, after which the new name will take affect:

    select * from sys.servers where server_id = 0 
    select @@servername
