Change app's name

Hi guys!
I created an update for my existing game. I want to change its name with the new update. Here's what I've done:
I created new version in iTunes Connect, and typed new name under the App Name field. Then I uploaded my update (it's now waiting for review). But the app name in iTunes Connect (in App Summary) it the same as the old one.
Did I do it right, and the new name will be available after the update is accepted?
Thank you!

(think the new version is just going to keep the old name … can't change appNames)
did you do new provisioning profiles ???
did you GS publish as a new game ???

Under Manage Your Apps in iTunes Connect I have something like this:
App's Icon
Green dot, old name, and 1.9 version
Orange dot, new name, and 2.0 version
Under App Summary I have old name, and two versions.
Under old version I have old name.
And under new version I have new name.
Note: Once submitted, your application name can be changed only when your app is in an Editable State.
I thought the Name category was locked in that state …
but if that category is allowing you to enter a new name … it isn't following through … or, it isn't functioning correctly
perhaps you could contact iTunesConnect about this weird behavior …
still, IMO, one would have to create a new app in the new name so it can be registered in the name database.
