Present Expedition.
"Rename a Discovery"
I see the Pencil in the top left of Items, but it is Grey-ed Out, and I can not Click on it.
How do I rename an item for this Expedition Requirement?

You need to find it before someone else. If you want an easy rename search for an outpost on surface. They are generated randomly so it is unlikely that you find one already named.

Try a system, not on the Rendezvous path, only needs to be slightly off, land on a planet, scan Critters, plants and rocks, land at a few locations you see while scanning from ship and save at the Beacon. At least one of these items will probably let you rename it.

This is like the discovery system milestone. You need to be the first one there.

Does it have to be one an Expedition planet? or can it be 35 Jumps to an not previously-visited Sector of Galaxy??

you can also just rename a location on the planet that you discover.

This is what I did and is by far the easiest thing you can do in pre-discovered systems.

i didn't even think of renaming a location...
BUT.. i will say it's surprising how often i have "found" stuff on well established planets, more then once in previous expeditions i've used the teleport gate on the anomoly to go to one of the special "community highlight" bases (which have been the same since i started playing before worlds part 1 dropped) and i get multiple "discovered today by..." me.

this was the last thing i did, just get blackhole cooordinates from polo then jump a system or two until you see an unknown planet

Before I succeeded, I was looking for a Grave to go through a Portal to some unknown place...

This really is this easy:
Find a new POI waypoint - yes, even in the "fully explored" starter system you'll be 99% likely to be the first to upload it so will be allowed to rename and upload:
