You can localize it.  I created it in the en_US.utf8 locale.  You can
create and edit launchers with gnome-desktop-item-edit.

Or you can use manually edit the default text like this:
Name=Sessions
GenericName=Sessions
Comment=Sessions


Tip: Create a launcher for gnome-desktop-item-edit on your desktop. 
Then you can drop other desktop launchers to that icon and it will edit
them.  (You can drag & drop to any launcher for a program that takes a
list of filenames on the command line.)
