Change the contact card template in Contacts on Mac

In the Contacts app
on your Mac, choose Contacts > Settings, then click Template.
Do any of the following:
Add a field: Click Add Field, then choose a field to add to the template. Fields that are already included in the template appear dimmed with a checkmark.
Change a field’s label: Click the label, then choose a different one. For example, to enter a work email instead of home email, click Home, then choose Work. To create your own label, choose Custom.
Duplicate a field: Click the Add button

If you use an Exchange account in Contacts, custom labels aren’t applied to cards.
Tip: To change the order of the First and Last name fields in the template, use the Show First Name option in Contacts General settings. This option also changes the order in all existing cards.
