Description is not used for any display on phones, alerting name is used on the calling party when it is calling the phone. For example phone A calls phone B, while phone B is ringing alerting name of phone A is displayed on phone B. display filed is used when phone answers and as caller ID.

Is this a shared line appearance that you are changing by any chance?

It is a shared line appearance and when I dug deeper I found the Line x on Device SEPXXXXXXXXX block and was able to change the information and had to do it for all devices the dn showed up on. Thanks for your assistance though.
