Hello LadyLN,


That's a great question! There isn't a way to name a photo in the Photos app on your iPad. If you would like to provide feedback for Apple to review about the Photos app, you can do so via the Product Feedback website. This would ensure the right individuals receive and review that feedback.


You can create and name photo albums in Photos. You can find those steps listed below along with the following article.


  1. "Open Photos.
  2. Go to Albums and tap the Add button Add button.
  3. Tap New Album. Type an album name, tap Save, then choose the photos and videos that you want to add.
  4. Tap Done."


Organize and find your photos on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Take care!

As indicated by Todd0213, the iOS/iPadOS Photos App does not provide a native method for renaming photos on your device. However, there a third-party Apps that will both expose and allow you to change the respective filenames of photos stored on your device.


Of third-party file manager Apps available in the Apple App Store, perhaps consider Stratopherix FileBrowser - Document Manager, or its “pro version” FileBrowser Professional:

You might review the extensive online Manual and help files to determine suitability for your needs.
