Correction: it's "/usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig" not "/usr/bin/grub-mkconfig".

The boot menu titles are generated through the scripts in
"/etc/grub.d/" when update-grub is run.

You'd have to edit the scripts in order to modify the titles - and
re-edit them the next time that they are updated through an update of
grub.
