I have purchased two HomePods (1x Black & 1x White) which I have setup and are running fine within the Home app on iOS.

My Black HomePod is in my Kitchen and is named Kitchen HomePod. My White HomePod is in my Living Room and is named Living Room HomePod as shown here in the Home app.

My problem is my White HomePod isn't showing the correct name under my account details, like the Black HomePod is on my iPhone/iPad or on my signed in devices on iCloud.com or in the Apple Support app.

I have tried removing and reading my white HomePod to my account but I always get the same result. Both HomePods are running the 11.3 software.

My Apple TV 4 is in the Living Room as well but it is simply called Apple TV 4 in its settings but that won't show in the Home app until AirPlay 2 is enabled in tvOS 11.4.

Any ideas how I can fix this annoying title issue?

I have this issue on ocassion with all my devices on iCloud esp the HomePod and AppleTVs. I just said to hell with it and next time I check it it was fix.

I believe this issue is on Apples end since mine is now correct without my intervention.
