Duplicate Contact Posts of Myself

Here's the scenario. I have the contact at the very top of the Contacts app (which, of course, is me) and then I have another one of me listed alphabetically. How does one update the "owner of the phone" contact at the top and then delete the one that is in the contact list alphabetically?

Rolfster, thank you for reaching out to us in this community forum. Your contacts, including the one automatically on the top of your list, should all be able to be modified by tapping on them and selecting the edit option. This process might be different on different device. What kind of phone do you have?

JavierMD_VZW I have a Samsung Galaxy S7. This is not the first time that I had the "Me" contact at the teop and then my name later in the list. The one later in the list has more detail. Can you confirm that what you told me is still the correct thing to do for the Samsung Galaxy S7? Thanks.

Let's look a little deeper into this, Rolfster. Are you able to edit your profile on the contacts page? What contacts do you have selected to display? Tap 3 dots on contacts page>Settings> Contacts to display.

I want to make sure that I have all the detail for my question. So for the Samsung Galasy S7 (SGS7) there is the "Me" contact as the first entry and then I have my name (Last, First) as another contact. Here is what I want in the end. I want to have only the "Me" contact at the top and have it be linked to my Google Contacts, i.e. it looks like the "Me" Contact and the Last, First name contact of myself are two different contacts. I am aware that you can simply edit contacts. The issue here is that I only want one of myself, have it all appear in the "Me" Contact and not have the Last, First contact of myself be in my Google Contacts but instead the "Me" Contact would be the Last, First without the repeat. Did I clarify that better? If not, please let me know. Thanks again for your patience in helping me.
