I set up my new iPad Pro from my iPhone 14. This has resulted in my iPad Pro being given an Apple device ID Of Peter's IPhone(2) and underneath, in small characters, iPad Pro as per attached screenshot. On my previous Android devices I could always change the device name to what I wanted. However, I can't seem to find an edit function for this purpose on Apple devices. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be grateful. TIA
iPad Pro, 11-inch, 4th Gen, Wi-Fi

Thanks very much. I got that far, but I'd forgotten what I did on Android, which was I had to close the device and restart it again and then the amended iPad device name showed correctly.
Can name of Apple Device ID be changed?
