That's not a GnuCash restriction. You can have multiple. If you create multiple 
however, that 
complicates processing and some report are limited to displaying only one 
account at the 
time. A potential use case is to have one AR account per currency in which you 
write invoices. 
Though I believe it to be better to keep your AR account(s) in your book's 
currency generally.

You can rename it. Only trading accounts are picky about their names (or did we 
fix that 
already?)
