Add the following code in your functions.php or custom plugin
// rename processing to shipping function wc_rename_order_statuses( $statuses ) { foreach ( $statuses as $key => $status ) { $statuses[ $key ] = $status; if ( 'wc-processing' === $key ) { $statuses['wc-processing'] = _x( 'Pending', 'Order status', 'woocommerce' ); } if ( 'wc-completed' === $key ) { $statuses['wc-completed'] = _x( 'Shipped', 'Order status', 'woocommerce' ); } } return $order_statuses; } add_filter( 'wc_order_statuses', 'wc_rename_order_statuses' );
