This is indeed what I would have suggested. For reasons that an expert may be
able to tell us more about, if you want to change the name of a
chapter-heading, you have to do it after issuing the \begin{document}. I've had
the same thing recently, where I was asked to change the name from
"Bibliography" to "References". I had to put the \renewcommand after the
\begin{document} to make it work.
Cheerio,
Wilfred
