Help with error: TypeError: (intermediate value).setName is not a function

I am getting this error when trying to execute a message delete command. The goal is to delete a message using the message id of a message, then to send the user whose message was deleted, the log. I receive this error when it comes to sending the log. Error:

TypeError: (intermediate value).setName is not a function

    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)

Code:

const { EmbedBuilder, SlashCommandBuilder} = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('deletemessage')
        .setDescription('Deletes a message with the specified message ID and informs the user.')
        .addStringOption(option =>
            option.setName('messageid')
                .setDescription('The ID of the message to delete')
                .setRequired(true))
        .addStringOption(option =>
            option.setName('reason')
                .setDescription('The reason for deleting the message')
                .setRequired(true)),

    async execute(interaction) {
        const messageId = interaction.options.getString('messageid');
        const channel = interaction.channel;

            const message = await channel.messages.fetch(messageId);
            const user = message.author;

            await message.delete();
            await interaction.reply({ content: 'Message deleted successfully!', ephemeral: true });

            const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setName('Message deleted in peachcord')
            .setDescription(`Message content: ${message.content} \nMessage ID: ${messageId}\n Reason: ${reason} \nAction carried out by: Moderator`)
            .setColor(`#ffc7fd`)
            .setTimestamp()

            await user.send({ embeds: [embed] });
    },
};

const { EmbedBuilder, SlashCommandBuilder} = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('deletemessage')
        .setDescription('Deletes a message with the specified message ID and informs the user.')
        .addStringOption(option =>
            option.setName('messageid')
                .setDescription('The ID of the message to delete')
                .setRequired(true))
        .addStringOption(option =>

                .setDescription('The reason for deleting the message')
                .setRequired(true)),

    async execute(interaction) {
        const messageId = interaction.options.getString('messageid');
        const channel = interaction.channel;

            const message = await channel.messages.fetch(messageId);
            const user = message.author;

            await message.delete();
            await interaction.reply({ content: 'Message deleted successfully!', ephemeral: true });

            const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setName('Message deleted in peachcord')
            .setDescription(`Message content: ${message.content} \nMessage ID: ${messageId}\n Reason: ${reason} \nAction carried out by: Moderator`)
            .setColor(`#ffc7fd`)
            .setTimestamp()

            await user.send({ embeds: [embed] });
    },
};

The problem code is in my embed builder:

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setName('Message deleted in peachcord')
            .setDescription(`Message content: ${message.content} \nMessage ID: ${messageId}\n Reason: ${reason} \nAction carried out by: Moderator`)
            .setColor(`#ffc7fd`)
            .setTimestamp()

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setName('Message deleted in peachcord')
            .setDescription(`Message content: ${message.content} \nMessage ID: ${messageId}\n Reason: ${reason} \nAction carried out by: Moderator`)
            .setColor(`#ffc7fd`)
            .setTimestamp()

I don't understand why I'm receiving this error as I've defined the embed builder at the beginning of the file? So the .setName function shouldnt be sending an error. I would love some help ;-; Thank you
