The following wil always work in professional!

Open the registry and go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> SOFTWARE -> MICROSOFT -> WINDOWS -> SHELLNOROAM
-> MUICACHE 

Look for the string: @C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll,-8964

Double click it and change the name from Recycle Bin to whatever.

In the same map you can also change the 'My computer' and 'My network' names. I found 
that with some installations, this changes back after you changed it. With this, 
the names stay.
