Description

If a stand-alone table was renamed (for example, in the ArcMap Table of Contents), it reverts back to its original name if its data source was changed by way of its Table Properties (i.e., right-click the table > Properties > Source > Set Data Source) or by way of the ArcPy mapping module.

Note:
The ArcPy mapping module provides the following methods to change a stand-alone tables's data source: MapDocument.findAndReplaceWorkspacePaths, MapDocument.replaceWorkspaces, TableView.findAndReplaceWorkspacePath and TableView.replaceDataSource.
