Hi tesimo, 

Thank you for posting to the Apple Support Communities. 


Try restarting and updating your iPhone before checking your Messages app again: 



If the issue continues and you use iCloud to manage your contacts, use these next troubleshooting steps to be sure that your iCloud account is connecting as expected: If your iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders won’t sync


If the issue continues, please contact Apple Support directly for more help. 


All the best!
