Find My showing different name when sharing with friends

Hello,


I have recently been having the problem that when I share my location with friends through the Find my that my devices name comes up as a different name than what my device is called. it comes up as my moms name and not mine. is there a way to fix this because I have looked in the Find My settings and it says it’s sharing my location from my device but it’s not.

Do you and your mom share an Apple ID? If you do, you shouldn't.
