Duplicate Mac names for one Macbook Proo

I renamed my Mac and now it is listed as two separate macs (same serial number) on my iCloud account. Can I combine them? If I remove one will there be any negative consequences?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

No - there is no need for merging them - just log out from both, restart the Mac, and then Log back in to iCloud.
