Azure Powershell - rename Database for PostgreSQL Server instance

Question

We have a Database for PostgreSql Server resource in Azure, with Locally redundant backup option set for Point in Time restoration as needed.

When restoring - a new server name is specified as part of the process.
Is there a way to rename the Server Name using Azure Powershell, post restore?

If not - is there any other known method to achieve that?

(the reason for asking is to test Disaster Recovery options, without losing original Server Resource, whilst maintaining the same server name)

Thanks - yes I am aware of that for SQL databases, but my question is specifically for postgres, so this doesn't answer my question. Unfortunately - that is the resource type been used in this example.
