Based on what you posted, it appears that at some time, you associated iMessages to use your Apple ID (typically, your Apple email address.)
To verify:
- On your iPhone, tap on Settings > Messages
- Tap on "Send & Receive"
- Here you find phone numbers/email addresses that you can both receive iMessages at, and where you can send them from
- The ones listed with a check-mark are active. Just tap on any you do not want to us, and vice versa.
