Change Siri's Name?

Does anyone know if Apple developers will ever allow users to change Siri's name? Sometimes a nearby voice that says "hey Siri" is erroneously interpreted by my iPhone or iPad as my voice and activates Siri. This can be a problem in places and spaces where many people use an iPhone. Voices on television programs will also sometimes activate Siri on Homepod. Customizing the name used to activate Siri to something other than "Siri" (e.g. Zaphod Beeblebrox, Pepper, Mr. Cratchit, Moneypenny, Miss Hathaway, etc.) might help resolve this issue.
