How to rename the agenda in org-mode?

Currently my org-mode agenda is showing in tabbar as "Org-Agenda 21 days
Diary Ddl Habit", how can I get it just showing as 'Org-Agenda' please?

Thanks
Sharon.

IIRC, some mechanisms in "org-agenda.el" rely on a specific agenda name.
So I suggest not to do that.

Okay, so how can I get the name shortened please? I've just measured it
and its actually taking up 3.5 inches! That is ridiculous and shouldn't
happen, so how can it be abbreviated or shortened?

Thanks
Sharon.

Isn't this really a tabbar question?  Maybe look at providing your own
function for displaying the tab when an agenda is displayed.  See
tabbar-tab-label-function?

Yes, I think this will do what you want:

(advice-add 'tabbar-buffer-tab-label :before-until
              (lambda (tab)
                (with-current-buffer (buffer-name (tabbar-tab-value tab))
                  (when (equal major-mode 'org-agenda-mode))
                  "Agenda")))

Oops, that'll teach me to edit elisp without aggressive-indent-mode.  :) 
This should work:

(advice-add 'tabbar-buffer-tab-label :before-until
              (lambda (tab)
                (with-current-buffer (buffer-name (tabbar-tab-value tab))
                  (when (equal major-mode 'org-agenda-mode)
                    "Agenda"))))

Brilliant, thanks very much Adam, that works a treat.

Thanks
