I got a new Apple Watch Series 10 today, but when I looked at my Apple Account, under devices, it has the new watch with the old watch name. I went into the Watch App and made sure the name was reflecting Jason's Apple Watch Series 10, then I restarted the watch and phone a couple of times, I did a backup to iCloud, but I cannot get the watch name to update, it still shows the old name after all that.

I did some Google searches but everything was just instructions that I had already followed. Is there something else I have to do?

Be patient, it’ll update eventually
