Not really, it's been a while since I needed to do it, but if you are
mounting by LABEL in fstab, it's just a matter of running vgrename to
give it a new name. If you are mounting by /dev/mapper nodes, you'll need
to edit fstab too.

You'll also need to change your kernel options if root is on the VG you
renamed.
