Messages does not show contact names for random numbers?

Just got my new MacBook Pro, 13" with Touch Bar, when I opened top messages on the Mac random contacts (that are saved with a name in my iPhone) are showing up as numbers. I've checked to make sure iCloud has contacts checked on both my iPhone and Mac. Any advice on next steps?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Actually figured it out, I had one more mail (outlook) account that I had not added to my Mac, and it seemed to have the missing contacts synced with it. Why some of my random contacts were saved to that one and not iCloud or my primary Apple ID account.
