Group Text Displaying Number Other Than The Originators Number

I am having an issue with a strange number showing up as me when I am in a group text.  The receipients I am sending to all see this strange phone number and not my contact name that is in their phone . This only happens when I generate the group text and not when any of them start a thread. They all see the same strange number. 

I found a tread started here in 2017 with others having the same issue and many others through 2020 complaining of the same thing. It never seemed to be answered. The thread was shut down due to length of time (3 years) it was running. 

Does anyone have the anwer to this? It's a real problem as these are people I manage and I need to communicate with them often. PS. This only started in the last 6 months. I have the same phone, same everyone...literally no changes on my end so this has to be something with Verizon who has been my carrier for over 25 years!
