Rename Database Prefix

If someone renames their domain and tries to create a new database, the prefix remains the same.

ex: Bob has domain foobar.com. He renames it to barfoo.com. He then creates a database, but it has the prefix foobar_.

Is there some way to change this without deleting and recreating the site, or is this a bug? Or is it just not doable with the Plesk schema (bar the recreation)?
 
Hi, there. Typically, domain name prefixes are tied to users rather than domain names. Could you please navigate to Tools & Settings > Database Hosting Preferences and confirm what's the option selected for Add a prefix and underscore to the beginning of database names/Add a prefix and underscore to the beginning of database user names? If that's set to "Username" - one way of changing the prefix is editing the Login user of the current subscription owner (Customers > example_user > Change Login Info).
