How do i make it so that MY contact info does not show up on someone else’s phone as “maybe: (name)?” For example, if I message someone new through imessage who does not have me in their contacts, is there a way to change it so that they don’t see the “maybe: (name)” ?

Avoiding being Seen in Caller ID
If someone has Caller ID, then they may see your name. If someone has your name set up as one of their contacts, then they would see your name, if they assigned it to your name. So, you might be able to hide your phone number though your carrier, if they provide this. Normally, it would show as "Unavailable ID".
