Yeah it's super annoying. It seems that this is a change with iOS 16. I originally created a bug issue for it, issue #24 but it doesn't seem that there is a solution. Looking at other homebridge plugins, no one has an actual fix on the dev side. The solution, on the user side, is to go in to the home app, delete the name of the accessory and you will see the actual button name in grey, as a placeholder. Type that in as the name.

Thank you. This work around worked. Can you keep this issue open in order to update me/us when the issue has been resolved (likely by Homebridge/Apple)? Any idea what causes this.

I was wondering about this too and thinking that is the model or the serial number field was unique, it might cause HomeKit populate the right name? Maybe exposure the field with the button id value appended to it?
