Code
if ( ! function_exists( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles' ) ) {
return;
}
// bbPress role => new name.
$wpide_bbp_role_names = array(
'bbp_keymaster' => 'Admin',
'bbp_moderator' => 'Moderator',
'bbp_participant' => 'Member',
'bbp_spectator' => 'Reader',
);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', function ( $roles ) use ( $wpide_bbp_role_names ) {
foreach ( $wpide_bbp_role_names as $role => $name ) {
if ( isset( $roles[ $role ] ) ) {
$roles[ $role ]['name'] = $name;
}

Only the labels change; capabilities stay the same.
