Add possibility of rename Backup folders. If you have only one computer, it go fine, but if you have more than one, it ends being very confussing. Due iCloud Drive issues, I've changed all of my Macs...

I don't seem to be able to vote on this idea. I click on the Vote for this idea -> button and nothing happens.
This is most unfortunate for this is a more than annoying problem. As a business customer I have clients each with several computers. They need to, for example, be able to copy a file from the Desktop folder of one of their computers to another of their computers. It is practically impossible at the moment as they do not know which of their computers is "Mac(1)" and which is "Mac(4)".
We have set the computer names so that each user knows which computer they're working on. But they have practically no way of knowing which computer's folder they are opening when they open Mac(2) or Mac(5). This makes the "backup" functionality practically useless.
All of our necessary files are already "backed up" as they are synchronised with Dropbox in real-time. It's almost easier for me to manually create a set of folders in the root of the Dropbox folder with the real name of the computer and manually create Downloads, Desktop and Documents folders in them and create aliases in the lefthand column in Finder. This works to a certain extent. But obviously not as intuitively, or as intrinsically, as when it's using the built-in system folders.
I can't vote for this feature, for some reason, but it really needs to be better prioritised as it's a lot more than a desired feature it's a practical necessity especially for business users with several computers.
It's time!
