JSON- renaming name/value pairs - json

Question

Hay all,
I am using Kohana 3 and I am attempting to integreate the jquery fullcarlendar plugin. The naming conventions used for this plugin seems to be "title" for the event, "start" for the start date, "allday" for a boolean, and so on.
After querying I generated a json string like
[{"eventdate":"2011-02-05 06:15:35","name":"EBS, Heriot Watt Graduation Ceremony"},{"eventdate":"2011-02-05 06:16:20","name":"Heriot Watt University Edinburgh Business School Graduation Ceremony 2011"}]
Is there a way to do something like
DB::select('start'=>'simpleevent.eventdate', 'title'=>'simpleevent.name')
->from('simpleevent')
->where('YEAR("eventdate")', '=', $todayasarray[0])
Basically after the query I get an array of arrays in PHP which is then used in
json_encode($myArray)
So can I rename the "name" for each name/value pair?

Answer 1

DB::select(array('simpleevent.eventdate', 'start'), array('simpleevent.name', 'title'))
->from('simpleevent')
->where( /*condition*/)

Answer 2

I tried this, basically after creating the json as a string on my action I used the php str_replace() function as follows.
$oldnames = array("name","eventdate");
$newnames = array("title","start");
$v->jsonData = str_replace($oldnames, $newnames, $jsondata);
This is an option only if you cannot make the alias change as shown above by Dusan
