I have turned off preview so that when I receive a text it just says

Joe blogs
Text message

On my lock screen. Is there a way for the phone to not show who the text is from and either way was it possible to do this on iOS 6?

Many thanks.

So you want to receive a text and not know who is sending it? Hmm sounds weird. Either way I don't think you can. You can go into contacts and change the name of the person there to say "Joe Blow" if you choose.

Go to: Settings > Notification Center > Messages

And in the "Alerts" section, turn OFF, "Show In Notification Center"
