Weird name in terminal

[Alina_Khorolskaya]

Hi

I started my terminal and it shows some weird name like “user@LouiseMrsIPhone”. How come it is the way it is? And how I can change it?

Screenshot and diagnostics attached.

Hi sir

Thank you for posting this question

the User represent the username of the current session for example root or in your case " user "
and the LouisMrsIphone represent the hostname or Device Identification on network

If you wish to change the " user " name, you can do that by going to settings>users and change the name from there
as for the LouisMrsIphone you can change it by typing the next command:

sudo hostname (the name your prefer) ex

sudo hostname samfisher

Eventually you will get

“user”@samfisher:

[Daniel]

This is the hostname or “Device Name” which can be set and changed by going to Settings->About->Device Name.
Is it possible that you, or another user of your computer changed this?
