How do I rename my device.

Just bought a new iPhone 8 and backed it up to settings of my previous phone. Now device name shows up the same as my previous phone and that gets confusing because my kids will be using that one and I would like different identification names for each.

iPhone 8, iOS 11.2.6

How can I change the Device Name for my iPhone 11, which currently is named iPhone 7? Used iCloud back of my iPhone 7 to setup my new iPhone 11. The device name of the new phone is listed as "iPhone 7" instead of "iPhone 11" I still have the iPhone 7. I need to add the 11 to iTunes, Amazon Kindle, etc. and think it will be confusing and cause problems to have two devices with same name.
