Iphone trying to share wifi password with myself

When unlock my phone it is prompting me to share my wifi password with myself. "Do you want to share wi-fi password 'myk223'swifi' with 'myk223'". Restarted the phone, checked that my gmail and apple id passwords match, turned off and on wifi. Can't get it to go away even when I hit share.

iPhone 7, iOS 13

Grazie Giulio, l'ho provato ma non ha funzionato :). I've recently updated/coordinated the name I use in my gmail and apple id accounts. On top of this I had to have the motherboard of the phone replaces due to an issue a couple months ago which issued me a new serial number. Within my apple ID it shows two iphone 7s with my name (i have only ever had this one with the two motherboards). I don't know that any of this is related just throwing out ideas.

The same thing is happening with me. We added a new Wifi router which is clearly the cause... and it's asking me to continuously share a password with one of our iMac Pros (already connected). I'm trying ProustGiulio's suggestion of powering things off and such. However, Apple should to add a disable feature on iPhones for this. Simple. On the Wifi page... put a new line item...


DISABLE PASSWORD SHARING. Boom. haha.


EDIT: It didn't work lol.
