Fancy calling the recycle bin something else?
You can change the name of the Recycle Bin in a couple of easy steps.
First of all go into the registry by typing regedit in Start/ Run and head to;
My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wind ows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
Right click on Default and then choose modify and then a new name.

Reboot and the name will have changed, mine is currently The Skip

i'd say low to medium, closer to the low
Default Recycle Bin Renaming - smaller scale alternative

i'm not sure if this changes the actual name or just what u see...but if u click on the desktop trash can u can right click it and re-name it to whatever u want...but this is different from what ur doing.
