这里的大多数答案都是错误的，原因有两个:

不能只使用RENAME TABLE，因为可能存在视图和触发器。如果有触发器，RENAME TABLE将失败 如果你想“快速”(如问题中要求的)重命名一个大数据库，你不能使用mysqldump

Percona有一篇关于如何做到这一点的博客文章: https://www.percona.com/blog/2013/12/24/renaming-database-schema-mysql/

以及由西蒙·R·琼斯(Simon R Jones)发布的脚本(制作的?)我修复了在脚本中发现的一个错误。你可以在这里看到:

将它保存到一个名为rename_db的文件中，并使用chmod +x rename_db使脚本可执行，然后像。/rename_db localhost old_db new_db那样使用它

对于mac用户，你可以使用Sequel Pro(免费)，它只提供重命名数据库的选项。虽然它不会删除旧的DB。

一旦打开相关的数据库，只需点击:数据库——>重命名数据库…

可以将一个数据库中的所有表重命名为另一个数据库下的所有表，而不必执行完整的转储和恢复。

DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS mysql.rename_db;
DELIMITER ||
CREATE PROCEDURE mysql.rename_db(IN old_db VARCHAR(100), IN new_db VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
SELECT CONCAT('CREATE DATABASE ', new_db, ';') `# create new database`;
SELECT CONCAT('RENAME TABLE `', old_db, '`.`', table_name, '` TO `', new_db, '`.`', table_name, '`;') `# alter table` FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = old_db;
SELECT CONCAT('DROP DATABASE `', old_db, '`;') `# drop old database`;
END||
DELIMITER ;

$ time mysql -uroot -e "call mysql.rename_db('db1', 'db2');" | mysql -uroot

然而，目标db中的任何触发器都不会开心。您需要先删除它们，然后在重命名后重新创建它们。

mysql -uroot -e "call mysql.rename_db('test', 'blah2');" | mysql -uroot
ERROR 1435 (HY000) at line 4: Trigger in wrong schema

三个选项:

创建新数据库，关闭服务器，将文件从一个数据库文件夹移动到另一个数据库文件夹，然后重新启动服务器。注意，这只在所有表都是MyISAM的情况下才有效。 创建新的数据库，使用Create TABLE…LIKE语句，然后使用INSERT…从语句中选择*。 使用mysqldump并重新加载该文件。

在phpmyadmin中，您可以轻松地重命名数据库

select database 

  goto operations tab

  in that rename Database to :

  type your new database name and click go

要求删除旧表和重新加载表数据单击确定

数据库被重命名

对于那些Mac用户，Sequel Pro在数据库菜单中有一个重命名数据库选项。 http://www.sequelpro.com/
