Do you have iMessage set up? I was assuming you did. If so Settings -> Messages -> Receive At -> Caller ID
Note that if sending a regular SMS text through your carrier, I do not know of any way to block your number in that case - the only ID a carrier has for you in their SMS system is your phone number.
iMessage, of course, does not go through your carriers text servers, but goes through Apple's messaging servers instead, so it can allow that option of what the recipient sees as the "from" ID.

Put something else in your caller ID setting (an email address) under messaging and make it your default caller id for messages.
Is this option under the settings? When I go to messages under settings there is no option for caller ID.
There is a caller ID option under phone in settings, but only an option to show or not show my caller ID.
That's all I can find.
