You have been given the answer.
It only needs a minor variation:

newname.df <- paste0("df_", format(Sys.time(), "%Y_%m_%d_%H_%M_%S") )
assign(newname.df,df)

and if you wish

rm(list=c('df','newname.df'))

Or install package memisc (found by doing findFn("rename") from package sos) and use function rename(0; I have not tried this.
