I'm about to buy a new phone. last time when I had repairs, I have to restore so I can get my numbers, etc on the new phone, and when I do, there are two phones with same name (actually in 4 lines). I restored from the one that came up, but it turned out not to be the most current information. So I'm told I can rename the others (dont' know if deleting can be done) so that I always know which one to choose. When restoring, it does not show the date, so I don't know which one to choose.
