The X-WR-CALNAME propery in the .ics representation is taken from the
dav_displayname column of the collection table in the database. This is
populated in various ways, generally when the collection is created,
although some CalDAV clients (e.g. Apple's iCal) will let you edit it.

In 0.9.8 there is a new screen which does display this information, but
the move in the direction of greater web-side upgradiness is only just
started :-)
