Reviews of rename tab title:
Except for a few minor design points it was my #1 extension for renaming tabs (yes, "I tried them all ... :); however, something happened near the end of March 2023 and it no longer persists after a restart of the browser. Probably due to some new stupid Google-change; hope the author can correct this, because it really was the best.
get reset everytime the page reloads.
I tried about 8 tab title renames and found this one simple and does what it says. I wanted a one time title change. Very easy in my test. Click the tab - click the extension icon - puts up a box to change the title - press save - done. Title changes immediately - no need to refresh (which all others I tried required). I opened another page in the same tab - it kept the new title. I closed the tab and then reopened it - it kept the new title. I did F5 refresh - kept new title. When I opened a new page in a new tab, it old title came back. That works for my purposes - maybe not for everyone, But I give it high ratings for what I wanted.
