I can't figure out why my MacBook Pro shows up like this. It does not affect function, but is rather irritating! Essentially when I choose speakerphone on my iPhone it shows my MacBook with (2) in the name.

Why is this happening. Surely it should just show the name of my MacBook without the (2)?
 
On your MacBook Pro, go to System Preferences > Sharing. You can change the computer name at the top there.
