After renaming a new device all entities keep the old ID instead of the new name that was given before the integration page loads #147034

The problem

  1. Add a device like Govee or Switchbot
  2. Rename the device before clicking on Finish
  3. Inspect the entity details

The entity ID no longer follows the rename but keeps the old ID with the ugly model number, the user must click on the Reset icon in the frontend to give the IDs the real name saved before clicking Finish

Example before:

After reset:

Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

nothing

Additional information

This has happened on 3 separate occasions, each while adding a new device

I did not link to an integration specifically because this impacts more than one and probably related to the dialog for renaming than an integration specifically
