What is the problem that needs fixed?

Usually, if the name does not match the monitor, either the wrong designation was put into the firmware of the monitor or the EDID of the monitor is either corrupted in the monitor's firmware or being corrupted as the information passes through the cable to the computer. As long as you are getting the resolution you need, the name does not matter.

If you are having problems with the resolution, then there may be an issue with the monitor or the cable.

You didn't supply your complete information so we don't know if you are using a dock or directly connecting the monitors to the GPU/computer.

The xrandr information you posted indicates 1920x1080 is an available resolution and you should be able to select it from the drop-down box in the Display app for each monitor.
