Change Qt Creator project name for CMake projects

I've imported CMake project into Qt Creator. However, its name has been set to 'Project. I can't find GUI entry to change this name to other more meaningful. I've changed all Project entries in CMakeLists.txt.user file (created by Qt Created). In result - Qt Creator during startup finds modified file faulty and triggers again 'Import project' procedure. How can I change project name?

You can change it adding project(your_name) (or changing it if it already exists) at the top of the file CMakeLists.txt in the root directory of the project itself.
Then open the project and run cmake from within QtCreator.
It will open the project with the right name in the project panel.
