Hi HH31,


I found part of an article that might help:


iOS: Using Messages

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3529

You can change the address that new iMessage conversations are started with in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start new conversations from:. Note that this setting applies only to new conversations. If you would like to change the address from which messages are sent, first change this setting, and then delete the existing conversation and start a new one.
