You can store phone numbers, email addresses, and even mailing addresses for the people you know. When this problem occurs, your won&#8217;t see your friends name when they call or text even if they are added to the iPhone. This may cause you to miss your friends&#8217; calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contacts can be called as electronic cards that contain a person&#8217;s contact details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This problem is very important. Without the contact names, you won&#8217;t feel that your iPhone is a complete device. Because you will not see the saved contacts names when you go to your Contacts, Phone or Messages app on your iPhone<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article explains how you can fix this missing contact names problem. Please try these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ht-block-toc  is-style-outline htoc htoc--position-wide toc-list-style-plain\" data-htoc-state=\"expanded\"><span class=\"htoc__title\"><span class=\"ht_toc_title\">Table of Contents<\/span><span class=\"htoc__toggle\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><g fill=\"#444\"><path d=\"M15 7H1c-.6 0-1 .4-1 1s.4 1 1 1h14c.6 0 1-.4 1-1s-.4-1-1-1z\"><\/path><path d=\"M15 1H1c-.6 0-1 .4-1 1s.4 1 1 1h14c.6 0 1-.4 1-1s-.4-1-1-1zM15 13H1c-.6 0-1 .4-1 1s.4 1 1 1h14c.6 0 1-.4 1-1s-.4-1-1-1z\"><\/path><\/g><\/svg><\/span><\/span><div class=\"htoc__itemswrap\"><ul class=\"ht_toc_list\"><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#htoc-1-update\">1.

Update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you do anything, ensure that your iPhone has the latest version of iOS. You can go to Settings &gt; General &gt; Software Update to check if there is an update. If there is an update, tap the Download and Install button and then follow the onscreen instructions to update your device. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/update.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/update.jpg\" alt=\"Update setting\" class=\"wp-image-17210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/update.jpg 400w, https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/update-185x400.jpg 185w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want, you may also want to turn on Automatic Updates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-2-restart-the-iphone\">2. Restart the iPhone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply restart your iPhone. Here&#8217;s how you can do this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>iPhone X or later: Press and hold the side button and the volume up (or down) buttons together until you see the power off slider. Drag the slider. Wait for your iPhone to turn off. Then press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.<\/li><li>Other iPhone models: Press and hold the power button (side or top) until the power off slider appears. Drag the slider. Wait for your device to turn off. Then press and hold the power button again until the Apple logo appears. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-3-check-region\">3. Check Region<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some users have said that changing the geographic region fixes this problem. You may want to try this. Please follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Change region<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First change your region to something else. Here is how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Tap Settings > General > Language &amp; Region.<\/li><li>Tap Region and change your region or country. For example, if your current region is the United States, change it to  Turkey. A message will appear saying &#8220;Applying this setting will restart your iPhone&#8221;. Tap Change to Turkey (if you select Turkey). Your screen will go black and it will take a few seconds. This will not change your language. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/region.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/region.jpg\" alt=\"Region\" class=\"wp-image-17211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/region.jpg 400w, https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/region-185x400.jpg 185w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Force-Restart<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After changing the region, force-restart your iPhone:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>iPhone 8 and later: Press and release the volume up button, then press and release the volume down button, then press and hold the power button (side button) until you see the Apple logo. <\/li><li>iPhone 7: Press and hold the power button (sleep\/wake button) and the volume down button together until the Apple logo appears. <\/li><li>Other iPhone models: Press and hold the Home button and the power (side or top) button together until you see the Apple logo.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Change it back<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the last step is to change the region back to the original. Go to Settings &gt; General &gt; Language &amp; Region and change your region back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now test if the names or numbers are showing when you get calls or texts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-4-short-names\">4. Short Names<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The iPhone offers a feature called Short Names. This feature can be used to change (names will appear shortened) how the names of your contacts appear. This is designed to fit more names on your iPhone&#8217;s screen. This feature is enabled by default. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some users have said that turning off Short Names fixes this problem. Here is how you can do this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Go to Settings &gt; Contacts &gt; Short Name.<\/li><li>Turn off Short Name.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/short-name.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/short-name.jpg\" alt=\"Short Name\" class=\"wp-image-17212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/short-name.jpg 400w, https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/short-name-185x400.jpg 185w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After turning it off, test to see if you can see the names of your contacts now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this does not fix your problem, go to Settings &gt; Contacts &gt; Short Name and enable it, if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this fixes your problem, again try to re-enable this feature. After reenabling, does this problem occur again? If not, and if you want, keep it enabled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-5-is-it-messages\">5. Is it Messages?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you only having this problem when using the Messages app? For example, when a contact texts you, you only see the number. If this is the case, try this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>On your iPhone, go to Settings &gt; Messages and find the SMS\/MMS section.<\/li><li>Turn off MMS Messaging. <\/li><li>Restart your device.<\/li><li>And then go to Settings &gt; Messages and turn on MMS Messaging back again. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/messaging.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/messaging.jpg\" alt=\"MMS Messaging\" class=\"wp-image-17213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/messaging.jpg 400w, https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/messaging-185x400.jpg 185w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-6-check-icloud\">6. Check iCloud<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you using iCloud Contacts? If so, it is possible that you may have turned off iCloud Contacts unintentionally on your iPhone. You can easily check this. Here is how you can check this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Settings > [your name] > iCloud.<\/li><li>Check to see whether Contacts is enabled. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/icloud-contacts.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/icloud-contacts.jpg\" alt=\"iCloud Contacts \" class=\"wp-image-17215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/icloud-contacts.jpg 400w, https:\/\/macreports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/icloud-contacts-185x400.jpg 185w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-7-see-also\">7.
