How to fix determine which dependent was already claimed

I got an error and return was rejected due to one of my kids already being claimed by someone else. How to I tell which child it was so I can try to fix it.

Does the message have "01" "02" "03" etc at the end?  Look at the order of the names of your dependents as listed on your Form 1040.

 

Any chance that one of them is a teenager or student who filed their own tax return?
