Starting yesterday, I was prompted to log into my Apple Watch 5 with my Apple ID. I did so and then it asked me to log into my daughter's account. I hit cancel. This happened again this morning. She has her own iPhone 8 and I have NEVER logged into her account on any of my Apple devices. She is on my family account, but that should have nothing to do with this.

I clicked the settings button in the dialog box, but that just showed my options and didn't show her information anywhere. Strange...
 
I'm wondering if it could be a sharing glitch - do you have shared notes/reminders or photo libraries? If so it could be that a server issue could fail to authenticate as you and then fall back to asking you to authenticate as the owner of the resource....?
