I think Device Name is
fine. You could put placeholder text inside the
field that says, "My Device". This would make it clear what it is for.

I wouldn't count on the user reading and
comprehending what is in that
text. He will probably just skim that text. But it doesn't hurt to
explain a little more anyway. Suggestion for second sentence, "You can
optionally provide a Device Name to help you manage your OTP devices.
In addition, label the first field "One-time Code". It currently has no
label. Second field can be labeled "Device Name (optional)".
Normally, we use an asterisk to denote required vs. not required. Then
you have something like:
"* = Required fields" as a key. But with only two fields I think that
would be overkill. So just putting "optional" in parens seems best.

One more point: At the bottom of the page for register TOTP, we possibly
need the link "Try another way" or something like that. This link will
be displayed just if user is currently trying to "Register 2nd factor
credential" because he is required to do so, and he has some more
alternative credential types to register (EG. WebAuthn).
If the user is unable to
complete the setup process he is stuck. At the
very least, the user needs somewhere to go back to. You could make him
start the login process over. From there he might be able to choose a
social login.
If "another way" is available then I agree that it should be provided as
an option.
