The wiki changelog says that "containers" can be renamed, which includes hoppers.

Well you see, in the Crafting Table it represents as Crafting. So I think it's not good to change that, Anvils do not even have their own name in its GUI. But Hopper DO have its name on its GUI! For example: You want to change Hopper Transport #1 or #2 so it will help the map makers knowing what's what, and what's where.

I have found that Chests, Trapped Chests, Brewing Stands, Enchantment Tables, Dispensers, and Furnaces are the only interact-able blocks which display their new names. I've tested other blocks such as crafting tables and anvils but it didn't work. I'm not sure why it only applies to these specific blocks, but more blocks should be covered by this mechanic, at least for consistency.
