For some reason my iPhone is called "iPhone (2)" and that bothers me to no end. But i can't find the way to rename it, the name can't be clicked and no textbox appears.

This phone was given to me by my employer. Do they have the power to restrict this?

Yes. IT departments can install profiles in a phone that restrict what you can do with it. You probably have one of these profiles installed in your phone.

Yea, I would talk to your IT dept, this is just lazy, when I was managing we at least set it to [usernames] phone
