If you are using data-binding to a type and auto-generated columns, this is the [DisplayName(...)], i.e.
[DisplayName("Last name")]
public string LastName {get;set;}
Otherwise this is the HeaderText on the column, i.e.
grid.Columns[0].HeaderText = "Something special";
A basic way to add a column is:
int columnIndex = grid.Columns.Add("columnName", "Header Text");
Or you can be more specific, for example to add a column of hyperlinks:
grid.Columns.Add(new DataGridViewLinkColumn());
(you could obviously set more properties on the new column first)

I'm using .Net 4.6.1 and my Datagrid.Columns[0] doesn't have HeaderText property.
dataGridView1.Columns.Add("colName", "colHeaderText");
This is the simplest method for adding a column and setting it's header text, although it might be much more useful to follow @Marc Gravell's advice if you want the column to be useful.

try this it worked for me...
dataGridView1.Columns[datagridview1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex].HeaderText = "newHeaderText";
