HomeKit Accessories missing names #13025

Description

Make sure you are running the latest version of Home Assistant before reporting an issue.

You should only file an issue if you found a bug. Feature and enhancement requests should go in the Feature Requests section of our community forum:

Home Assistant release (hass --version): .65

Python release (python3 --version): 3.6.3

Component/platform: HomeKit

Description of problem: Can add bridge, but none of the devices/accessories (some switches and temp sensors) don't have names-- they take the room name ("Default room" on my test phone)

Expected: HomeKit accessories with their HA friendly names.

Problem-relevant configuration.yaml entries and steps to reproduce:

# 51826 is where HomeBridge is
homekit:
  pincode: '$somesecretnumber'
  port: 51827 # so that it doesn't conflict with HomeBridge

Additional info:
Tested on iPhone 7Plus and iPhone 8 with 11.2.6. Each phone is on a different iCloud account and the same results happen on each. Already deleted .homekit.state from my config directory with no improvement.
