iMessages are being sent from email not phone number

[Hdavies20]

I just upgraded from a 4 to a 6. My iMessages are coming through with my email as my contact not my phone number. I've tried unchecking my email but then iMessage won't work. How can fix this? It's annoying to those receiving my texts.

Clarification, in settings/messages/send and receive, select your phone number in "start new conversations from"
