with other Bluetooth wireless technology enabled phones, it is
very useful to include the user's name as part of the device

Passcodes
Passcodes ensure that the device you pair with really is the
device you think it is. A passcode is a set of numbers and/or
letters (at least four characters) that you agree to exchange with
the owner of the other device. Simply agree a passcode with the
other user and each enter the same code into both devices when
asked for it. The actual code is up to you; the important thing is
that you both enter the same code. Accessories like headsets
often have a default passcode, usually ‘0000’, see the specific
user guide.
