Hi,
You have to find the external id of the report. Then you have to create an XML file and add a record. 

<record id=”external_id” model=”account.move”>
    <field name=”print_report_name”>new name</field>
</record>

Here replace the external Id with the actual external id of the original report. You can also generate file names using functions. If the standard report may generate the file name from a function. So you have to change or override the function also.

Hope it helps
