Hello BP366.


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you are unable to share your name and photo in Message Settings. We’re happy to help.


Please go to Settings > Messages > Share Name and Photo > Name and Photo Sharing and toggle on. You will then choose your photo and name to be used along with sharing to Contacts Only or Always Ask. 


Here’s some additional information in the section titled “Change your name and photo” here: Use Messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Let us know if you have further questions.


Take care.
