  • Open Settings > Bluetooth on your iPhone
  • Tap on the i icon next to the AirPods
  • Tap on Name
  • Rename AirPods to something funny, cute, or whatever you want
  • Tap the back arrow twice

That’s it. That’s how you change AirPods name permanently in iOS 16.

How to Change AirPods Name in Android

Renaming AirPods on Android is much easier than on iOS. You don’t need to connect the AirPods to change the name.

  1. Go to “Settings” and tap on the “Connected Devices” or “Bluetooth” option.
  • You will see your AirPods among the list of connected Bluetooth devices. Tap the “Settings” icon in front of the AirPods name. It is represented with an “i” icon on OnePlus, Realme, and Oppo phones.

  • A pop-up window will appear. You can now change the “Device name.”
  • Hit the “Rename” button to complete the process.

Why Does AirPods Name Keep Changing?

Wondering Why do my AirPods have a different name? It’s either because the name goes back to the original when the AirPods are placed back into the charging case or after switching between devices.

Your Apple earbuds take their name from the device they are connected to. If they have another person’s name, then they have connected to another phone in the past.
