@mashpeenancy Just to be clear, you want your name to show up on the other person's phone when you are calling them? 

  1. Open the phone app.
  2. Click the 3 dots in upper right and select Settings.
  3. Click on Supplementary services
  4. Click on Show your caller ID and change it to the appropriate setting

Some carriers block the Supplementary services menu. If you don't see it, you will need to reach out to your carrier.

The default setting for caller ID is to show your name and number.  If supplemental services is available in your phone settings you can make sure it's on.  It will say "network default".  Then you have two other options: "always" or "never".  So, if you are not sure what your carrier's default is (usually always show), just select "always".  If the supplemental menu is not available to you, assume that your caller ID is always showing.
