Change "Alexa" to "echo(or something else"

My Daughter's name is Alexa so the name does not work in our house...will there be an update to change the name for the Sonos 1?

    That’s regrettable. If Amazon (who has many reasons to not allow anything but Alexa) allows other names, Sonos needs to follow suit. Echo is the name on every device in our house... except Sonos.

    It is being considered by Sonos but they haven't committed to a date as of yet.
