fun fact: you can rename default directories such as ~/Downloads and others via a file at

Code:
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/user-dirs.dirs

, it's pretty straightforward:

Code:
# This file is written by xdg-user-dirs-update

# If you want to change or add directories, just edit the line you're

# interested in. All local changes will be retained on the next run.

# Format is XDG_xxx_DIR="$HOME/yyy", where yyy is a shell-escaped

# homedir-relative path, or XDG_xxx_DIR="/yyy", where /yyy is an

# absolute path. No other format is supported.

# 

XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/desk"

XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/down"

XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/"

XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/"

XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/docs"

XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/music"

XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/pics"

XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/vids"

XDG_CONFIG_HOME="$HOME/.config"

make sure to run

Code:
xdg-user-dirs-update

after editing the file.
