Updates objects with name rules that are not automatically updated. You use this command when an object is moved to a different naming parent, causing a change in the relationship or hierarchy within the model.

For example, a pipeline is the naming parent for a weld. The name of the weld is the same as the pipeline it is in.

However, if the pipe run that holds the actual weld object in the system hierarchy is moved to a different pipeline. The weld name does not know to update because it does not know the change occurred.

You run Edit > Update Names to update the names automatically. The weld name updates to reflect the new pipeline to which it is associated.
