I would turn imessage off, then

Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).


After that I would turn imessage back on and try to set it like you want. Make sure you have yourself correctly entere in the contacts app, make sure you have your phone number entered in settings/phone/my number and in have your information entered in settings/general/siri under my info
