Each HubSpot account has the following default
objects: contacts, companies, deals, tickets, appointments, courses, listings, and services. If your business refers to objects by other names, you can change the names of these default objects.

To update the name of an object:
- In your HubSpot account, navigate to Data Management > Data Model.
- In the upper right, click Edit data model.
- On the object’s card, click edit.
- In the right panel:
- In the Object name (singular) and Object name (plural) text fields, enter new names.
- Hover over the info icon to view the object's default name and internal value (Object Type ID) used by integrations and APIs. The internal value will not change if you update the object's name.
- Review the HubSpot default properties that will be renamed. If you want to make changes, in the Replacement Property column, enter a different value. Learn how to rename custom properties.
-
- Above the Object name (singular) text field, click Reset to reset the object’s name and HubSpot default properties back to their defaults.
- Click Save.
Moving forward, the object’s name will be replaced throughout the CRM. For example, if you change Company to Account, the Companies navigation item would be replaced with Accounts, which brings you to the accounts index page.
Please note: there are some areas in your account where the default name may still appear, including in the HubSpot mobile app.
