Double auth with Duo, how to rename account?

Hi I tried to activate my double auth on my Discourse site (I am admin), I scanned the QR code but then in my Duo auth app, the label for the Discourse account was created as “Google” and not my site name, Apparently I cannot rename that Duo entry. Any idea? Thanks.

Disable 2FA on your account, remove the wrong entry from DUO app then re-add 2FA to your account under correct label.

Well I tried that but the label “Google third party account” is always created by default and cannot be renamed.

Use a different app, I use authy and it works fine. Even lets me rename after the fact.
