When I go into text messages to type new message it looks up name thru my phone contact list this never happened before.
Why has my phone started looking up text message names thru my phone contact list? Never done this before.

Hi there Xxooyy,
- To send a message in the Messages app on your iPhone, these steps from Send and receive messages on iPhone show the only ways to select a recipient:
1. Tapat the top of the screen to start a new message, or tap an existing message.
2. Enter the phone number, contact name, or Apple ID of each recipient. Or, tap, then choose contacts.
3. If you set up Dual SIM on a compatible model and want to send an SMS/MMS message from a different line, tap the line shown, then choose the other line.
If you are trying to achieve something else while sending a message, please provide more details so we can assist further.
Cheers!
