Have 3 site local site addressed that when I pinned all have the "1" as the icon for the pin. Is there a way to change those either through Safari or the device? For example, one is my local router address while another is a security camera address.

I may have found a way to rename a pinned tab. I am using Safari in Macbook with El Capitan.
Clarification: I didn't renamed a pinned tab. Rather I unpinned the tab then came with a way to pinned again with a different name.
For example, I had three pinned tabs all named "G": Google Keep, Google InBox, Google Calendar. I was able to pin them as G, I, and K. Here is the method I followed:
1. Unpin the tab and close the web page.
2. Look up the web page in Google (or another search engine)
3. Open the page.
4. Save the page on your Favorites bar; but "rename" it -- (I named "Google Keep" as "K").
4. Now click on the newly renamed link to open the page.
5. Now pin this page. It should be pinned with the new name.
I hope this method will work for you.
Unfortunately this is not work for me. I’ve pinned a couple sites that start with local IP address. Now all see are pinned tabs starting with 1.
How can I rename pinned Safari tabs to something more meaningful? I am using the latest Safari version in Mac Sierra.
Caution: I noticed that I had to keep my renamed links as they are on my Favorites bar; otherwise, I would lose the new names I had given them.
For example, when I tried to move my renamed links/bookmarks away from my Favorties bar to hide them with other links (so to save space on my Favorites bar) my pinned tabs reverted to their original names. However, when I returned my renamed links/bookmarks back to the Favorites bar, my pinned tabs regained the new names that I had given them.
The title can't be changed for a pinned tab.
Thank you! It works.
