Wrong contact name showing up

Hi anika212,

Thanks for the response. If you go to compose a text message, and you type in your contact's name, do multiple entries show up? If so, try tapping the 'i' next to the wrong entry and remove the contact. If you do not see this 'i', or you do not see multiple entries for the same contact, please Contact Apple Support.

Best regards.
