Change strange iPhone name

How do I change the crazy nonsensical name of my iPhone? I wasn’t the one to name it.

iPhone 7, iOS 15

Name of iPhone keeps changing My iPhone 13 was originally set-up as Kurt's iPhone 13. It was fine for about a month or so, but then (for no reason I can see), the name was changed to iPhone (1). It keeps changing and is currently up to iPhone (9). Haven't really seen anything operationally wrong and the various tie-ins such as find my device, etc. seem to follow it as it changes. But still it is annoying. Anyway to stop this? it is up to date with 15.5 Thanks. [Edited by Moderator]
