Don't. If it's possible, it's still dangerous and you can lose all your data. So just delete Data and entertain, and restore the latter from backup. – Daniel Beck Jan 16 at 11:01

To repartition a drive on MacOS, just use Disk Utility. It's in the Utilities folder inside your Applications folder. Here's a simple tutorial on the subject.

However, it sounds like you actually just want to delete all the information on Mac Data and change its name, which you can do from the finder. There's no reason to delete the partition unless you want to change its size or use a different filesystem.

Can you say more about the "order" you want? I don't think disk partitions have any natural "order" that's meaningful from a user's perspective.
