I'd be careful with that one. Since the Change event occurs when a cell is
changed by VBA, it is possible that cell A1 on Sheet1 would be changed when
Sheet2 is active. Thus, your code would rename Sheet2, not Sheet1, with the
value in A1 on Sheet1.
Instead, just to be safe, use
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then Me.Name = Range("a1").Value
End Sub

1) yes, with sheet level code like this
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then ActiveSheet.Name = Range("a1").Value
End Sub
2) yes, with
=MID(CELL("Filename"),FIND("]",CELL("Filename"))+1,255)
this only works on a workbook that has been saved.
