Is It possible to rename hosted service of windows azure? I created it with a wrong name and I want to rename it.

Seems not possible. You might have to remove and recreate.

This is now possible with the Azure Powershell SDK...just not via the Management Portal directly.
You can relabel the Azure Hosted Cloud Service by using the Azure Powershell SDK. You just need to download the publish settings before you can execute any Azure Cmdlets. Use Set-AzureService to update the Azure Cloud Service name.

This does allow you to change the service url and description however it does not allow you to change the service name
