Custom Input Port names are session-independent. They were never saved with the session.
Assuming you are on GNU/Linux, can you check `$HOME/.config/ardour7/port_metadata` for Ardour internal audio-systems.

If you are using JACK, then jackd is responsible for keeping port-meta-data. By default jack's meta-data database is volatile.
you can use `jack_property` to modify the port-names.

I don't want to rename inputs for whole system, just as an alias for Ardour....

If you use JACK, then jackd provides ports (and port-meta-data), and Ardour has no control over this.
