My messages come in and they are just saying “message and notifications”. Yesterday they said the contact name and iMessage. Does anyone know how to fix this? This started with the last update.... 🤦🏼♀️

I'm assuming that you have Settings>Notifications>Messages>Show Preview set to "Never". There have been a number of threads in the forum in which people are reporting that they no longer see the name of the contact in this case. Something seems to have changed, at least for some people, but I don't know the cause.
What do you have Notification Grouping set to?
You can adjust notifications on a iPhone in Settings>Messages>Notoifications
You are correct! I don't want to see the preview of the message, but I do want to see the sender's name.
This was never an issue until the latest update.
When I restart my phone it will briefly go back to showing the contact.. but that doesn't last long.
I don't know why this issue is suddenly cropping up. But it has been happening enough in the last couple of weeks that I've noticed. I don't know what the common denominators are. You might try searching for some of the other threads to see if you can put together any of the pieces.
I have mine set to Show Previews, and that hasn't changed in any way.
