Can I rename the local-edit folder of my forked template?

I forked a template to make my own, renamed it, and exported it to my Dropbox folder so I can edit it locally. The resulting folder is named after the template I forked ("empty-copy-template") instead of the name I gave it. Can I rename it? If so, do I need to keep the same style (all lowercase, dashes instead of spaces)?

Yes you should be able to rename your template, but please note you'll have to re-install the renamed template on the dashboard (renaming is equivalent to destroying and then creating a template).

Thanks. Besides the folder name, should I change the "slug" field in package.json (currently set to "empty-copy")?

(It seems like these things probably should have changed when I originally renamed the template in the dashboard before forking it?)
