Caller ID

My Apple ID pops up when I FaceTime someone instead of my number or my contact name in their phone. What should I do?

iPhone 11, iOS 13

Try Settings/FaceTime/Caller ID to see if you can change it there.

FaceTime answered on another device So this keeps happening and I wonder if someone has found a fix. I have an iPhone, watch, and Macbook all in my possession. Some of my FaceTime calls keep getting answered on another device. I have changed the password a few times and looked which devices are signed into my account. they are all my devices. phone is completey updated. are there any known fixes for this?

got a facetime call from unknown Gmail id. I thought Apple devices were safe until I got a call from an unknown Gmail id. I was shocked a lot. I never share my contact details with unknown persons. Any option to "select receiving calls from contacts" for facetime calls only? Messages and phone calls are okay to handle with unknown persons but a video call is scary. Sometimes when we are in hurry, we will lift a video call as an audio call. Apple should concentrate on this part. I saw on the internet, there is a feature for blocking particular calls in the facetime app that is not a solution. If we block that call that scammer will call with another ID. Please help if I miss any option to resolve my issue.
