Hover over the Menus option in the top menu bar, then choose “Main Menu” from the list.

From here, click on the Home item. This will take you to the properties for this item. If you then choose Parameters – System on the right, it will pop out a nice little list of options with Page Title and text box next to it which is populated by “Welcome to the Frontpage”.

Voila! The title of you site is now whatever you want it to be.
