Actually, the name change took effect in 2022, and is mentioned in the article:

name change was in July 2023


Yes, you are right, sorry. I thought that (2022) in the submission indicated that the article must be from 2022 (though it seems actually to be from 2024), indicating that the mention of the name change in the article must mean that it had already happened by 2022; and then, though I checked Wikipedia, I confused the date of acquisition with the name change.
