Send My Location's name incorrect IOS 8

Hi,

Here's a funny one that is really starting to do my head in

When I try to send my location via iMessage, the name is incorrect (i.e. not "David's Location")

It actually shows up as "IT Service's Location"

I know where the IT Services has come from (I think). I have an iMac at work that has a generic admin account called "IT Services". I used this to access my iCloud email and iMessages a few weeks back, but have now dissociated my accounts from this device?

I assume the link has been created then, but I can't find any way to change teh name on my iPhone?

All the iCloud/iTunes details are correct on the iPhone?

It's a daft little problem, but its annoying me now...

Any advice would be appreciated...
Thanks

Have you checked Settings > General > About > Name?

Check there and let me know if it is listed there.
