Hello,

This means that there is, or was an iPhone with the same name on your Apple ID. If you want to change your iPhone name you can follow this guide to learn how: Change the name of your iPhone - Apple Support.


Keep in mind this change can take up to 48 hours to be reflected everywhere.


Thanks for reaching out!
