TodoInTX的存储过程不太适合我。以下是我的尝试:

-- stored procedure rename_db: Rename a database my means of table copying.
-- Caveats: 
-- Will clobber any existing database with the same name as the 'new' database name.
-- ONLY copies tables; stored procedures and other database objects are not copied.

DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS rename_db;
CREATE PROCEDURE rename_db(IN old_db VARCHAR(100), IN new_db VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
    DECLARE current_table VARCHAR(100);
    DECLARE done INT DEFAULT 0;
    DECLARE old_tables CURSOR FOR select table_name from information_schema.tables where table_schema = old_db;
    DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET done = 1;

    SET @output = CONCAT('DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS ', new_db, ';'); 
    PREPARE stmt FROM @output;
    EXECUTE stmt;

    SET @output = CONCAT('CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS ', new_db, ';');
    PREPARE stmt FROM @output;
    EXECUTE stmt;

    OPEN old_tables;
    REPEAT
        FETCH old_tables INTO current_table;
        IF NOT done THEN
        SET @output = CONCAT('alter table ', old_db, '.', current_table, ' rename ', new_db, '.', current_table, ';');
        PREPARE stmt FROM @output;
        EXECUTE stmt;

        END IF;
    UNTIL done END REPEAT;

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…

TodoInTx的解决方案和user757945的改编解决方案都不适合我的MySQL 5.5.16，所以这里是我的改编版本:

DELIMITER //
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `rename_database`;
CREATE PROCEDURE `rename_database` (IN `old_name` VARCHAR(20), IN `new_name` VARCHAR(20))
BEGIN
  DECLARE `current_table_name` VARCHAR(20);
  DECLARE `done` INT DEFAULT 0;
  DECLARE `table_name_cursor` CURSOR FOR SELECT `table_name` FROM `information_schema`.`tables` WHERE (`table_schema` = `old_name`);
  DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET `done` = 1;

  SET @sql_string = CONCAT('CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `', `new_name` , '`;');
  PREPARE `statement` FROM @sql_string;
  EXECUTE `statement`;
  DEALLOCATE PREPARE `statement`;

  OPEN `table_name_cursor`;
  REPEAT
    FETCH `table_name_cursor` INTO `current_table_name`;
    IF NOT `done` THEN

      SET @sql_string = CONCAT('RENAME TABLE `', `old_name`, '`.`', `current_table_name`, '` TO `', `new_name`, '`.`', `current_table_name`, '`;');
      PREPARE `statement` FROM @sql_string;
      EXECUTE `statement`;
      DEALLOCATE PREPARE `statement`;

    END IF;
  UNTIL `done` END REPEAT;
  CLOSE `table_name_cursor`;

  SET @sql_string =  CONCAT('DROP DATABASE `', `old_name`, '`;');
  PREPARE `statement` FROM @sql_string;
  EXECUTE `statement`;
  DEALLOCATE PREPARE `statement`;
END//
DELIMITER ;

希望它能帮助到像我这样处境的人!注意:@sql_string之后将在会话中逗留。不使用它，我就无法写出这个函数。

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。

I posted this How do I change the database name using MySQL? today after days of head scratching and hair pulling. The solution is quite simple export a schema to a .sql file and open the file and change the database/schema name in the sql CREAT TABLE section at the top. There are three instances or more and may not be at the top of the page if multible schemas are saved to the file. It is posible to edit the entire database this way but I expect that in large databases it could be quite a pain following all instances of a table property or index.

这是一个快速生成重命名sql脚本的方法，如果你有很多表要移动。

SELECT DISTINCT CONCAT('RENAME TABLE ', t.table_schema,'.', t.table_name, ' TO ',     
t.table_schema, "_archive", '.', t.table_name, ';' ) as Rename_SQL 
FROM information_schema.tables t
WHERE table_schema='your_db_name' ;
