I expect this will be addressed by the patch just landed in Bug 1728638. I'll leave this open for QA to verify when the time comes. It'll be a little while for the updated Beta with these changes to hit the Store.

Yes, verified by installing 94.0b1 from MS Store and the naming in the apps is "Firefox Beta" and 93.0 is correctly named as "Firefox". It is safe to close this issue as fixed.
