You can do that with "M-x set-frame-name RET".  You can later switch
to a named frame with "M-x select-frame-by-name RET".  This comes in
very handy when I need to work on a tty for a long time: I can
organize my frames by subject (one frame for email, another for
working on a program, yet another for reading Info docs, etc.) and
switch to the one I need in one go, instead of using long series of
"C-x 5 o" or using tmm-menubar and guessing whether the frame I need
is F3 or F5.
