Google Analytics Replace Homepage URL as "/" to Something Else

Question

I'm looking to find a way to replace the home page URL that Google deems as "/" in my Google Analytics reports. I know Google sets "/" as the home page but in my reports, I want it to display "Home" instead.

I haven't found any solutions through Google. I'm thinking it's through filters somehow.

I've tried going through the GA settings and did a search on filters how to change this but no solutions. Thanks!

Although I would not recommend this, you can create a filter in a view (possibly not the default one as it's bad practice) with the following fields:

Regex explaination:

^ asserts position at start of a line
\/ matches the character / literally 
$ asserts position at the end of a line

Filter configuration if the SS gets lost:

Filter type: Custom Checbox: Search and Replace Filter field: Request URI Search string: ^(\/)$ Replace string: Home

Remember to verify your filter and to create an additional view if you do this.
