Description
I am creating a basic deadman check alert. When I create the alert it defaults to a name of "Name this check" I modify the name after creating the alert. But when the alert sends status updates to _monitoring it is still using "Name this check" as the check_name.


Restarted influx, same thing...
Running
Influx CLI 2.0.4 (git: 4e7a59bb9a) build_date: 2021-02-08T17:47:02Z
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the alert workflow described in the issue: create a deadman check, rename it, and inspect the resulting check_name in the _monitoring bucket. Trace the alert name update and status-update path, using Influx CLI 2.0.4 as the reported baseline. Done means renamed alerts write the new name instead of "Name this check".
