title: How can I modify the instance name for an ec2 instance
body: <p>I would like to modify the "name" attribute of an amazon instance.  See attached screenshot.  I need to do it programmatically, but can't find anywhere in the EC2 API how to set that.</p>
  
  <p>If it matters, I'm launching these via a spot request through their API.  I would like to set the field that I tagged, "set this name" in the image below.</p>
