iPhone 8plus renaming itself

My iPhone 8 Plus renamed itself today. Updated to 16.0.3 yesterday. The name changed from its original name to iPhone (2). Do you have a fix for the renaming issue.

Thanks

Be careful when sharing the device's sensitive and valuable information with friends and family members.


Thumb Rules:

  1. Enable  Guided Access before handing over an iPhone to kids
  2. Don't share Apple IDs
  3. Don't Jailbreak
  4. Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device and payment methods
  5. Beware of Phishing
