Solution

When you log in your google calendar. you can see the calendar lists of Calendar Settings/Calendars. The first one (show in list is enable) is your primary calendar. You can't delete primary calendar or unsubscribe it. Maybe you had added some events in these two calendar. How to change your primary? 
  1. backup your calendar (export these calendars).
  2. delete the calendar that you want to change to primary calendar.
  3. delete the primary calendar (you can't delete this calendar truly. just clear events).
  4. this stage. you have two empty calendars.
  5. change the primary calendar name what you want. (ex: Wall Street).
