Hello DebbBrisson,
Thank you for posting to the Apple Support Communities.
Try the following troubleshooting steps first if your Apple Watch and Apple ID are not syncing up as you would expect:
- Restart your Apple Watch.
- Update your Apple Watch.
- Test connecting your watch with a different network: About Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular on your Apple Watch.
If you are noticing this issue when pairing your Apple Watch for the first time, try the steps in this next article before signing in again: If you can't pair an Apple Watch with your iPhone.
If you have already paired your Apple Watch, it may be helpful to check the Apple ID settings to confirm the correct account is linked with the device: Manage your Apple ID settings on Apple Watch.
Finally, if your Apple Watch is requesting a different Apple ID account, this may be related to Activation Lock. This last article explains more: About Activation Lock on your Apple Watch.
Cheers!
