Air Dropping Photos

my phone was replaced due to a hardware issue. I did a backup and transferred the backup to the new phone. Then I changed the new phone’s name. Now when I try to airdrop photos my contacts don’t show up to airdrop a photo to unless they change their setting to everyone for 10 minutes. This was last year so I don’t remember the name I previously had. Is there a change needed to fix this?

You do not have to remember the name of the iPhone that you had earlier. If you know the Apple ID that is good enough. Add the Apple ID to the list of contacts on both devices
