Changing the name of the variables in table

Let us say I have an output file (called combined) which is an array so To write to a file, first I convert it into the table but now I do not know how to change the name of the variables
T = array2table(combined);
Now the variables names are combined1, combined2 and so on but I want to give it my own names like 150K, 140K etc. Could you help me with this

You can do that on initialization,
a=table(1,2,3,'VariableNames',{'One','Two','Final'})
or after creation,
a.Properties.VariableNames={'Five','Six','Seven'}
Note that, sadly, Matlab does not let you define variable names before you put at least one row of data.
b=table('VariableNames',{'Test'})
Error using table (line 307)
The VariableNames property must contain one name for each variable in the table.

You can use it like _146k or k146. If you really need to keep the original variable name, you can save them in descriptions of the table.
a.Properties.VariableDescriptions={'146k','145k'}
They wont show up on variable but you can load them back whenever you need again.

Shelender, array2table allows you to provide var names if you don't want the defaults. See the doc.
Caglar, the reason why
table('VariableNames',{'Test'})
errors is because you are providing a name but no variable. You can't name something that isn't there, and there's a difference between "has no rows" and "isn't there at all". If you want a table with no rows, one variable, and a specific name, do something like this
table(zeros(0,1),'VariableNames',{'Test'})
or in recent versions (R2018a and later, IIRC), this
table('Size',[0,1],'VariableTypes',{'double'}, ,'VariableNames',{'Test'})

I think you can do something like: T.Properties.VariableNames = {'newname1' 'newname2'}

The issue is that you cant start variable names with numbers. You can have to some sort of string at the beginning. Maybe you can do 'Resolution_146k' or give some other title so it describes it well
