Name drop not showing on Apple watch Ultra 2

I have an Apple phone 14 Plus with iOS 18.2.1 and an Apple Watch Ultra 2 with iOS 11.2. Why does "Name Drop" not appear in "Contacts"?

iPhone 14 Plus, iOS 18

Contact names not displaying on Apple Watch in Messages iPhone 11 + Apple Watch Series 4. Contact names are no longer displayed in Messages on Apple Watch; only telephone numbers. I've tried all reset sync data and restarting devices. Nothing works. Seems like this stopped working after last update. The only information in the Community was several years old. Any recent suggestions other than what is already on the forum in the Community?

Contact syncing error in non apple watches Hi i am Raj continuing using iPhone for last 10 years . I have a suggestion for the improvement of the products. Recently I bought HUAWEI watch Gt 3 pro and I tried to sync contact from iPhone but it’s not working later only I realized that only 10 favorites contact can save in HUAWEI health app but iOS supporting for 3rd party app like wats up contact . So I can see the caller name those who are calling through watsup but no contacts from iPhone couldn’t able see caller name. I bought the product because of manly look of the watch but couldn’t able use the full feature of the watch . My humble suggestion is to give permission to sync contact in HUAWEI health then I can see caller name in watch in next iPhone update . thank you
