Rename the speaker as another name? Not sure what the question really means, to be honest, which is why I'd not answered. But John B is right on, as usual. If you unplug the speaker, the room name it carries will go away, assuming it's not part of a stereo pair.
I had the same dilemma the other. I wanted to remove my Play 1 speaker to pair up with a 2nd Play 1 and link them to the sound bar in the lounge. I created a new room called "Lounge Room"and grouped them together after tuning and het presto.
There is currently no option to remove removes from the setup, sadly.
Since a "room" is a speaker, or a set of speakers, there's really no way to "remove" a room. You can change the name of the room, or you can, as Straker has done, pair a set of speakers so that they become a single "room".
I was attempting to replace a Play 1 as a surround sound speaker in my Playroom and instead added it to the system as a speaker in a new room: Playroom 2. I wanted to remove Playroom 2.
What I ended up doing was removing the surrounds from Playroom, and then telling Sonos to add new surrounds. I had to press the two buttons on top of the speaker to get the system to see it, and then it prompted me and said "this will remove the speaker from Playroom 2." So it added the speaker to Playroom, and then Playroom 2 disappeared from the list of rooms. Hope this is helpful.
These suggestions don't help me. I created a room accidentally that has NO SPEAKER in it. The original name for the room still exists and I can just change the name, but how do I delete the room I do not want if it has no speaker in it??????
I’d try moving a speaker in to that room (in software, not physically....English, so imprecise). Once the room has that speaker, I think it would get rid of the phantom, so you could then re-move the speaker back to where it was.
Ran in to a similar issue in a move a couple of months ago. I had a room showing up as a stere pair which hadn’t had one before the move. For me, I was able to unpair that stereo pair, and the ? speaker disappeared. Not sure what’s going on, theoretically, the software should never have a room without a speaker, so there is something odd there, to be sure
