I am not sure if this is already a common issue... However....

I recently got a new MBP, and obviously want to use the Messages feature. I also have an iPhone 5. However, my sibling also has an iPhone, and when we first got it we used my Apple ID to sign in on his phone (though he has since gotten his own Apple ID). However, when I try to sign in to Messages on my MBP, where it says "You can be reached for messages at:", the only options are my email address and his phone number, rather than mine. Any idea how I can change this? I've tried logging out and back in, going to my Apple ID settings, etc....

Thanks!
