Pixel 2 BT pairing: only shows the BT address, not the device name

Anyone have this behavior? When pairing my Pixel 2 to my cars (Mazda 3 and Mazda 6), I only got a list of BT addresses, never the name of the car/device until I paired. It was mildly frustrating because I ended up trying to pair to a few other devices before finding my car :). Maybe I was not patient enough for the phone to resolve the names? I waited 10+ seconds, which is enough time for all of my previous Samsung phones.

Just tried it now at work and I see device names pop up really fast for PCs. A handful still have the BT address, which I'm guessing are not computers.
