For a non-destructive solution you could set
metadata.
This is possible from outside the client, for example with the commandline
tool jack_property, included in jack(2).
Be advised that not all patchbays and connection tools display these "pretty
names". Sometimes you have to switch the display mode in the tool, sometimes
they don't have them implemented, in this case please file a bug report.

I have a need to run three osc2midi clients (m2o)
on a single JACK
server. Is there a way to customize their JACK port names? I can
engineer to use osc2midi, osc2midi-01, and osc2mid-02, i.e., the
automatic JACK-given names, but I was hoping for something more
self-documenting. I took a look at jackdriver.c, but did not find
where I could insert a JACK port name string.
