I think you have to be more specific. I don't have a clue what you want to do and why.

The MShome network is created as the default when you complete the networking wizard in windows. If you are networked I believe you will have a default workgroup under my network places unless you join a domain (Server-based network). It's just a matter of what you want to name it. If you are networked by a wireless connection you may want to change the name to provide "minimal" security against intrusion if you also turn off broadcast on your wireless router. HTH
