vmware-vmx vm name doesn't change it in Fusion?

[SurferL]

Using the following Packer Template, the vm_name doesn't actually change the vm name when it is opened in Fusion? Just the .vmx file?

So when I open the newly created VM - it appears as "clone of base_image" rather than "new_vm_name". 

Is this how it is meant to be? and if not, how am I suppose to change it properly?
