For me this happens with self-created .desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications.
I have two files in there.
One was copied from the other, but both Name and and Icon in both are different
When I now try to start the last created application, it shows the correct icon, but the wrong application name. I have changed the file gradually, so maybe the folder was indexed at a time when the Name was wrong but the icon right (although I actually changed in the other order as far as I remember, first Name and then Icon). Is there any way to tell the Dash to re-scan the desktop files?
