Generally virtual server name shouldn't be edited, we should add "ForceNew" field for name argument, so that any change in name will create a new resource.
I will add above change in code, so that it won't be misleading
From ( https://devcentral.f5.com/s/question/0D51T00006i7k5A/how-do-i-to-rename-a-virtual-serverpool-name-on-a-f5-ltm- ) virtual server name can be changed by editing bigip.conf file but you may encounter issues while loading bigip.conf file.Best way is create one new virtual server with dummy IP and then you just switch over the IP's in off business hours.

Appears that the "name" attribute on tf does not get updated when edited, even through tf recognizes that it will change it. After "applying" the change, nothing is changed on the F5 and subsequently running apply will attempt to change the name again. Logs show success each time, but actual UI does not not show any changes.
Example tf script:
