Assuming you already have a variable called RSxi, to rename it, you simply assign it to a new variable with your desired new name. Then you can clear the old variable if you want:
% Rename RSxi to RSai
RSai = RSxi;
clear('RSxi'); % If you want to get rid of old variable, clear it.
% Rename RSai to RSbi
RSbi = RSai;
clear('RSai'); % If you want to get rid of old variable, clear it.
