To help Siri learn about your relationships, first update your card in the Contacts app. Make sure your card is labeled as "me." Then tap on the "add related name" field and add your family members and any other important people in your life. Then, the next time you need Siri's help, you can just say "text my daughter."
Set your My Info card for Safari, Siri, and other apps
Set your My Info card for Safari, Siri, and other apps. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap My Info, then select the contact card with your name and information.
Ask Siri. Say something like:
-
“Sarah Castelblanco is my sister”
-
“Send a message to my sister”
-
“What’s my brother’s work address?”
Give it a try!

Feb 14, 2016 11:28 AM in response to mobyvtby mobyvt,Hi Judysings - thanks for the suggestion but I have two daughters and they are both already entered in my contact card info as my children. The odd thing is, no matter who else I text, I can simply say to Siri, "text Joe", "text Susan" or "text Amanda". With this one daughter, when I tell Siri to text her by using the first name, Siri types our last name (which sounds nothing like her first name).
I can text my daughter if I use first and last name but I shouldn't have to, right? I don't have to do that with other people....why is Siri all of a sudden not working for texting this one daughter with just a first name? I'm hoping to able to text my daughter in one step and not have to give the last name every time.

I'm not really sure why this behaviour is happening with only one of your daughters. Since you've already tried to re-enter her contact information, and Siri works for everybody else in your address book, have you tried to remove your daughter's last name from her contact card in your address book? Make sure this info gets updated in your My Card as well.
If that does not resolve the issue, perhaps one of our technical advisors can delve into this a little further for you.
Cheers,

Feb 14, 2016 2:33 PM in response to judysingsby mobyvt,i deleted the last name from her contact then I went into my card and selected her revised contact info as my child. I asked Siri to text Kendall and again Siri changed the spelling to our last name. How do I initiate a look at this from a technical person?
