Tried that already, it seems that the mysql database just places everything in lower cases:
MariaDB [librenms]> RENAME TABLE bgppeers TO _bgppeers;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.13 sec)
MariaDB [librenms]> RENAME TABLE `_bgppeers` TO `bgpPeers`;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
MariaDB [librenms]> show tables ;
