WiFi hotspot

How do I go about changing my device name that shows up as an SSID on other people's devices when I have WiFi hotspot turned on? I wish to do this often to throw off hacks.

iPhone 11, iOS 15

You need to change the SSID name in the router, see -> Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
