  • See if you have any apps installed that allow you to change names. This will be at Settings > Privacy & Security > Contacts.
  • The same can also be changed in iCloud, so if someone has your Password, they can make that change.
  • To make sure the change is not made from someone using your iPhone, change your Passcode.
  • If the name only shows up on the person you are calling, then that is the name they have assigned to your Contact Card.
