My main MacBook Pro (out of the 2 others I have in the house) doesn’t show device nicknames in AirDrop menu, only the short device names (iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, etc). For reference, my other MacBook Pro shows the nicknames of the devices (Piipperi’s iPhone 11, Piipperi’s iPad Pro M1, etc).

Any idea how to change this? All 2/3 MacBooks in the house are on the latest Big Sur 11.5.1 (one that I didn’t use as an example is on Monterey beta, but it shows the AirDrop device nicknames correctly as well)
