How do you name a text group on iphone

I am trying to rename a group text on iPhone. The standard support article suggests that if you click the group, and then click the info button, it will give you the chance to name the group. But when I do it with a group text, there is no place to rename the group. Here's the video:

Why?

iPhone 8, iOS 14

How to name a group text message

You can name a group iMessage as long as everyone is using an Apple device, like an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You can’t name SMS/MMS group messages or iMessage conversations with just one person.
