 ### Lifecycle
 
 * [`docker create`](https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/create) creates a container but does not start it.
+* [`docker rename`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/rename/) allows the container to be renamed.
 * [`docker run`](https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/run) creates and starts a container in one operation.
 * [`docker rm`](https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/rm) deletes a container.
 * [`docker update`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/update/) updates a container's resource limits.
 
-If you want to rename a container, use `docker rename $OLDNAME $NEWNAME`

 If you want a transient container, `docker run --rm` will remove the container after it stops.
 
 If you want to map a directory on the host to a docker container, `docker run -v $HOSTDIR:$DOCKERDIR`.  Also see [Volumes](https://github.com/wsargent/docker-cheat-sheet/#volumes).
