I have three, but in there is also a setting for starting new conversations, check that address. If you reply to a thread from when you both had the same address, it will continue to show the original sender as whoever it was that started the conversation.

I haven't checked my contact info on her phone yet. I got to thinking that possibly something on her phone may be the problem. When I send her a text from my phone, it has her name on it as the sender, kind of strange. (smile) Thanks for your response!

Also, Is her phone number listed anywhere in your contact identity? Another possibility is that she sent you or copied you on an e-mail and listed your phone number as hers. finally, is your phone number listed in your contact identity?
