The Bonjour Sophistication and my problem

Ok, my question before I clarify why the question, is how I could rename my bonjour appearance to, let's say, MacBook Bonjour under Finder location? ... and this is why!


Under Finder Preferences, I marked my Macbook Pro to show under locations on the Finder sidebar which it does and shows the hard drives/external of the MacBook Pro. At the same time, I also marked Bonjour and it shows all the other computers on my network, however, what I did not expect but which is happening is that it again shows my own MacbookPro under the same name the second time but with my shared folders only.

Is there a way I could avoid this second own showing under Bonjour without having to unmark the Bonjour?

If the above is not possible which I doubt it could be, is there a way to rename this second Bonjour reappearance of my own Macbook Pro to a different name of my choice?

Fact remains that both appearances although under the same name contain or have different purposes.


Currently using MacOS Monterey 12.5


Please help!
