That means that the bike will come with a carbon frame and 'pro' hints at top-end componentry. On other bikes in the range, you'll find 'advanced' and 'pro' as a suffix.
A '2' or higher at the end of a bikes' name means that it's a more budget-friendly option. Up the price and then there's the Stance 29 1, the '29' denoting the bikes' wheel size (any names lacking the '29' means that the bike is on 650b hoops) and the '1' tells us that it's the spendier model. So, the Stance is the base model with an aluminium frame and no fancy extras but it does come with 650b wheels.

If we use the brand's budget full susser, the Stance, as an example we can wrap our heads around Giants naming style. Giants' naming system is a little bit more complicated than other brands but the brand offers each bike with a wheel size option, a choice of suspension travel, and aluminium or carbon frames, so they're plenty to choose from and it doesn't take too much to decipher what each name means.
