In helm Can I change the chart name of a chart that is already up

I'm using HELM to upgrade my k8s environment and I'm wondering, Can I change the chart name of a chart that is already up using upgrade command (or any other way)?

example chart name:

helm upgrade --set image.tag='12.55.6-2' zk-chart /path/to/helm/files

So that zk-chart will change to new-zk-chart, without downtime so I don't want to delete the chart and create it again.

I don't think it allows us to change the chart name during upgrade, we may have to remove old one and install the new one. – sfgroups
