No, the phone's name is of no importance when it comes to restoring a backup and in fact I prefer to add something to the name to identify the phone.

I changed the name on the new phone slightly to make identification easier but there seem to be some odd quirks, not major, but I am wondering if perhaps I should have kept the name the same? For example a purchased song on the old phone was accidently deleted. When I search for it on Itunes it shows up as purchased but pressing the download button doesn't do anything (using the same Apple id of course). Any comments welcome.
