It depends on what device you want to rename.


To change the name of an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > General > About > Name.


To change the name of an Apple Watch, go to the Apple Watch app on your iPhone > About > Name.


To change the name of a Mac, go to System Preferences > Sharing.
