Q: How can I change the name of my phone?
When I got my new phone and logged in for the first time, it was automatically set up as "Dean's phone". Dean is my partner. How do I change this to my name to help with sharing and downloading with my other devices?
iPhone SE, iOS 9.3.3

Hi there JaDean99,
Congratulations on getting a new phone! If I'm correct, you'd like to know how to change the name of your iPhone. If that's the case head on over to the Settings app > Tap General > Tap About. Then just tap the first line that shows the name of your iOS device. Rename the device to whatever you'd like and then tap Done.
If you were wondering where I got this information from, I got it from this Apple Knowledgeable Support article: Change the name of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod - Apple Support.
That's it!
I hope this helps you.
