Background for icon renaming is hard to see sometimes
Check the picture. When the text is above dark background, it can be seen. When it is above light background, it cannot be seen.
Problem is that Windows 7 uses a mask to make the text transparent, and the box white. When you move the icon to a light background, the text masks correctly, but therefore mixing the box's white color with your background's light color, making it unreadable.
Invert the mask, or change background color when the range of colours detected behind the text is close to white, or something along those lines.

I do use Aero Glass, and yes, the blue highlight appears when you FIRST choose to rename, but when you start to type or click in a portion of the text, the highlight vanishes and thus reproducing this effect.
This is the wallpaper btw: http://omploader.org/vMTB5ag/wallpaper_prototype_06_1920x1080.jpg
Now I get it: It only happens if you choose multiple wallpapers. (Nice image, BTW!)

I can't reproduce this. I always get a white rectangle with black text and blue highlight when renaming. So it always is readable.
Have you changed some settings? Do you use Aero Glass?
