My Apple Watch is no longer recognizing my contact names

My Apple Watch is no longer recognizing my contact names. When receiving a call or text I just get the number not the name of the person contacting me. This has happened before and I go into watch settings and restart. That has worked in the past. This time not so much. I have even tried turning the watch off and back on again. I have tried multiple times in the last 24 hours with no luck. Kind of frustrating.

Reset your watch by pressing in the crown and side button until you see the Apple logo ( about 10 seconds) then release both buttons.
