+        --------
+        >>> idx = pd.Index(['Ant', 'Bear', 'Cow'], name='animal')
+
+        By default, the original Index and original name is reused.

+        To enforce a new Index, specify new labels to ``index``:

+        1    Bear

+
+        To override the name of the resulting column, specify `name`:
