Yes, you can change the name. When the phone is detected, it may have the same "Device Name" as a previous phone, if your phones are the same brand or model. But you can change what you call the phone in the "Register" field of the menu after you establish the connection. The actual connection is not made by name, but instead with the internal Bluetooth device number (like a MAC number for computers and network devices).
My registered phones have first names of each owner as the names.

Thank you...thank you. I was having the same problem and called Lexus and they were unable to figure it out. It appears that some of the units have an additional screen which says "Add phone". Mine and apparently yours does not. But what you recommended worked fine and I renamed the second phone after it paired and now I'm a happy camper.
