Do you want the name to be random or you want a particular name when you click that button?

If you want a random name, then use the following code:

Button yourButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonid);
yourButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClicklistener(){
@Override
public void OnClick(View v)
{
   ((Button)v).setText(q);

}
});

Here q is nothing but the string which you will be obtained by following answer Show random string

And for particular name, you can follow the other answers.

Can't really help much with that little information, but here is a quite generic way to achieve what you seem to want:

Button yourButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonid);
yourButton.setOnClickListener( new OnClickListener(){
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v){
        ((Button) v).setText("new text");
    }
});

thanks for the answer, but what I mean is if the button on click it will change the button text itself – adig Mar 07 '12 at 13:49
@adig I'm not quite sure I get what you mean. This code does change the text of the button itself. – Jave Mar 07 '12 at 13:53
yes, it did change. but I mean the show more than one text at random if the button is clicked – adig Mar 07 '12 at 14:37
