Hello,
I entered the command "git remote rename Old_Name New_Name" but it
appears to only have affected the Local Repo I am working with. Other
requests or connections to remote repo still see the Old_Name. What am
I missing?

What, precisely, do you mean by “other connections”? A remote name is a local-only concept (effectively a pointer to a resource locator and other metadata, like a fetch refspec). If you expected this to, say, change the name of a repository on a server, that’s not really what this command does.
PS I’m surprised to see a phone number :) I expect you are inundated with spam messages (voice or text).
