Rename iPhone

I am trying to rename my iPhone and the changes aren’t being updated. It still shows the device ID as “iPhone”. I’ve rebooted it (had to do that with the iPad) but it still doesn’t show the new name.


Any ideas.


Thanks


iPhone 11, iOS 13

I knew where to change it, but it was not updating. In other words it was still showing the original name "iPhone" on the Apple ID screen where it shows your name and has tabs for iCloud, iTunes, Find My, Family Sharing, etc... Rebooting didn't seem to make it refresh the name there. That is why I was wondering if there was something I missed.


Thanks
