Looking to update the status name but I can't figure out how to do it besides add and delete.

Yes, you can rename a Jira status, but it is a global change affecting all Spaces using that status.

For company-managed spaces, go to Settings > Work Items > Statuses and edit.

For team-managed spaces, edit the status within the workflow editor.
