The details for other detected OSes are provided by os-prober. The entry title for the main OS is derived from the GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR variable in /etc/default/grub. You can tweak it to fit your needs.

Very helpful. Actually the name is "lsb_release".

lsb-release is the name of the Debian package providing the lsb_release command.

I need to study the shell - not sure about that GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR statement. Will definitely change the -i to -d. Why isn't -ds needed?

What do you mean ? -s is already present in the line.
Note that you can define your own static text instead of the shell command.
