Use the -V option for mkisofs, like
mkisofs <other options> -V data_disk
'data_disk' will show up in winderz explorer as the disk name.
There are a couple other options you might be interested in.
-publisher <foo> lets you insert a text string into the volume header, like
"Bill's Productions, you copy you die." You can specify a default -publisher
tag in .mkisofsrc, with PUBL=<foo>
-p <foo> is the preparer ID. Something like "this awesome disk prepared by
Bill's lackey on 2-1-2005." This also can have a default in .mkisofsrc,
PREP=<foo>. Command-line overrides the defaults.
man mkisofs tells all.
