When I go to my message screen (Iphone 6) I see my message, along with a circle with the "message sender's initials. However, when I scroll down, I see "blank circles" with no initials and no message. What are these blank circles?

I get that too! Did you find a way to resolve it?
Same issues. Lots of weird things happening lately on cell phones
When you scroll down the contact's photo is shrunk in size to make more space for messages displayed on screen.
If you don't have a photo for that contact in your contacts, then the circle with initials is still shrunk down in size, but then there is no room for letters inside.
Do these messages have content inside? Or are they blank?
Are you able to delete these messages?
Perhaps a reboot would help?
On an iPhone 6s and earlier, iPad, or iPod touch: Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Please see below jpeg. Maybe I did not clearly describe the issue. The blank circles are on the Preview Message Screen, not the actual message.
Are you running the latest iOS? 10.3.1? Or are you using a beta release of iOS?
Yes. I'm running 10.3.1 --- not beta release
Also, the screen shot is the only "blank circles" --- I have other circles that appear normal with the contacts initials. So, this is not a representation of "all" my messages.
No content. Yes I can delete. Just anno

I received some good suggestions but, no resolution.
