Q: Names not showing up on notifications

iMessage notifications of my Apple watch series 2 show up as phone numbers, no longer names from my contacts.  What is wrong?  Anyone else having this problem?

    Hi

     

    The following steps may help:

     

    • On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > General > Reset > tap once on Reset Sync Data.
    • Nothing will seem to happen, but the process will run in the background / invisibly to you, so allow some time afterwards for it to complete.
