Why is NameDrop sharing my wife's information?

When I try to use name drop it shares my wife’s information. Mine is on the contact card as well as in settings- general- about- name. What am I missing?

Hello,

Go into your Contacts and make sure that "me" is set correctly. See this:

"Go to Settings>Contacts, click on My Info, and then select yourself from the Contact List when it displays. May want to make certain that the number you have for yourself is the same as your phone number for the phone. Specifically the iPhone number field."

Good luck.

MrBill3,

Thank you so much for the reply. I tried each piece as you laid it out but still shows my wife when you try name drop. It shows me as the me contact and the phone number is correct as well as labeled iPhone contact #. I even changed me to another contact but still showed up as my wife’s contact. I’ve searched and can’t find an answer. Restarts still wrong. Frustrated lol.
