Shared Notes in the Notes App using the wrong name
When I access a shared note and make an edit, a name that is not mine and that is not associated with my Apple ID is appearing as the creator of the edit. How can I fix this?

Hey there WizardofWoz,
That is a strange thing to occur, and we'd like to help by learning more about the issue, along with ruling out some possible causes:
- If there was a time where your correct name showed for edits that you do for a shared note, when did this start, and do you recognize the name at all?
- Sometimes unexpected behavior can be resolved with a restart: Restart your iPhone
- We see you have iOS 16, but the latest version is iOS 16.5. You can verify this within Settings > General > About. In case you needed it, this link shows how to first back up, then update: Update your iPhone or iPad
Cheers!
