I'm looking for a tool to change the header (name) of a GB/GBC ROM to make my list of games look clean on my flashcard. Anybody know of a good program to do this?

Most consoles that have any kind of header setup will usually have a tool to fix them even if they don't necessarily have a "enter all the fields or leave default" type editor.

If you are big enough and ugly enough to make your own homebrew then you are big enough and ugly enough to use a hex editor to scrawl whatever funny joke you want as a serial, internal name and the like ( https://bgb.bircd.org/pandocs.htm#thecartridgeheader ) and press "fix header" in such a tool so that it sorts out any checksums.
