Ok, let me explain, I have a son named Jacob. So in my app, I named that dot "Jacob"

So I say Alexa, drop in on Jacob. She says she can't find a "contact by the name Jacob. Please check your contacts in the Alexa app"
Why is she going to contacts?

Background: had the Echo and 1 echo dot.

Bought 3 more dots off Amazon and when the arrived, I opened the app and they were labeled Saint's echo 3, 4, and 5

I went to each and named the device name as each kids name (of the room they were in) They are all live and connected to wifi.

No. You need to say:

Alexa drop in on Jacobs dot
