Thank you all for the feedback, I’ve changed the method to be bulk_update() as this seems to be the most liked option. Naming things is hard, and while bulk_update() isn’t perfect I think it’s a bit better than bulk_update_fields() or just update_fields().

With bulk_update() alone, I'd expect the exact analogous action to update() to occur, since we're already used to that pattern from create() vs bulk_create(). update_fields() alone may also work. Upside: it's shorter. Downside: it's not immediately clear that it takes an iterable and not an instance. I'd be happy with both options.
