In context of IMAP and POP3 mail accounts, individual mail folders are generically known as mailboxes.

You can find guidance upon managing your mailboxes here:

Use mailboxes to organize email on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

You should note that not all mailboxes can be moved, deleted or renamed - as some are default mailboxes (e.g, inbox, sent, bin/trash etc).
