We want to update the naming convention of all of our variables as it is causing confusion. Would there be a downstream impact if the name was changed?

Hello. Changing the name of an Adobe variable, prop, event or eVar, has no impact on data collection. Once you make the name change, any report / workspace project that was using that variable will also get the name change within the table or graph. Any segment or calculated metric that is using the variable will also see an updated name within the respective builder tools, but the name of the Projects, Segments and Calculated Metric will NOT be updated.
I hope that helps

Data collection will not have an impact I think as you will send it to the variable keys lie eVar1 BUT it might and will impact some other features:
I would do the test on a mock report suite to be safe
