How do you rename custom controlled text boxes?

Hi everyone,

I really like the format of fields in cover pages because the box contains an annotation to describe the content that should go inside it (in the picture attached below, I'm referring to the box above saying 'Title').
Does anyone know how to create custom fields such as these in which I can modify the annotation (such as changing Title to something like Client Name)?

Thanks.

They are content controls.  Some are content controls inside of text boxes.  Just click the title tab, then using the developer tab, click controls>design mode.  Here you can change the placeholder text.
