How can I change a name of a dot walked field that has the same name as a already existed field?

I had dot walked a field onto a existing table already. I didn't know until I dot walked the field that the field name was the same as a already existing field on the table. I am wondering on how to change the label name of the dot walked field without affecting the other field with the same name

Yes, Just give this a try and let me know, You can do this dynamically and just on your form alone. Add this in an onLoad client script and see if it works for you.

g_form.setLabelOf("caller_id.vip", "MVP");  

Here Replace caller_id.vip with the complete dot walk column name of your field, and its label as the 2nd parameter

I have tested this by adding the Caller.VIP field on my incident form and then executed this script which dynamically changed its label on the form only

I tried the method that you mentioned before, but it is not working for me. I also saw that the field I am dot walking has a dictionary override from the original field. I'm not sure if this could be why it is not working correctly.

@jbugarin  You can create on load client script 

example : g_form.setLabelOf('caller_id.location','Primary Location');
