Hey everyone - how do I remove the added text "- Local" (see attached screenshot) that's been added after "Documents" in Finder? I've searched the forums and other places and can't find an answer. All of my other folders in Finder don't have this added designation. Thanks! ?

My guess is this distinguishes it from documents in iCloud. I checked on my iMac and I don’t see a documents local but I have all my documents on iCloud. I’m not sure if there’s a way to change the name though
