There was an attempt to rebrand as "737-8", "737-9" etc which didn't seem to fully take off. I have seen safety cards labeled that way.
You're right about the CEO, but the replaced him with the Chairman from the same time period. None of these C-Suite bean counter types are special enough to be worth keeping around that they shouldn't have found someone completely now. As for rebranding, all the planes still say MAX on them, and Boeing still proudly keeps the MAX name. Silly.
