lorenzocs Let's say I want to name the range A1:A20 "myNamedRange"
Step 1: Formula ribbon, Define Name
Step 2: Enter the name you want to use, click in the "Select the range......" field.
Step 3: Click on the "collapse"-button (far right in the "Select the range....." field) and select the range to be named (or directly write the reference of the range as indicated). Press OK.
Step 4: Select A1:A20. In the Name box, you can now see the name given to that specific range.
Step 5: In the Define Name window, you can now see the named range that you just created. Edit (change name and/reference) or Delete (the minus sign) or Create a new one (the plus sign).

Riny_van_Eekelen's reply refering to the add-in "Excel Labs" is very helpful.
Having searched all over the Internet, I feel the discussion here is valuable.
To provide some icing on the cake, I would like to share another blog post illustrating how to install and use this add-in "Excel Labs."
The blog post is here:
