What has happened is that you have accidentally pinned a text message, from / to that person at the top. This is a feature of iOS 14 to maintain easy access with those texts that you use the most. You can unpin that message-
You can Touch and Hold that message icon at the top and it will reveal a sub-menu and then you can tap on Unpin. That will remove that message thread from the top.

Can ou clarify further? I am not understanding what you mean by iMessage page. Where exactly are you seeing someone else's name and not yours?

When I touch and hold - "unpin" is not a choice. Still have a friend's name up top. Please advise.
Third time was a charm...got it to work?!
Glad it all worked out and you figured it out.
