Icon problem

My Trash Bin icon somehow changed to the look of the Documents dir. The icon properties says the name is Trash, yet it says Documents on the desktop. There's no rename option when I right clicked it to get to properties.

The rename option appears in all but the icon which should be my Trash Bin (except it says Documents and wrong icon). In the icon's properties, the icon is a trash bin but it's not a trash bin on desktop.
