Hi, If you wish to sync the contacts through iCloud, then you'll need two separate Apple ID's. If you turn off Contacts within iCloud, then you should be able to maintain just one Apple ID, but the business iPhone would not have it's contacts syncing or saved in iCloud. The second option

Hi, No, Contacts are not shared in the same manner as you are hoping. As far as I'm aware, this is by design to allow people to have personal contacts that are not modified by a second user. If you both used the same Apple ID, then the contacts would be shared, but with separate Apple ID's

Hi Matt, The first question I would ask is how did you get double contacts on your phone? You may have an extra source of contacts on your phone. If your mac and phone are pulling contacts ONLY from iCloud, then they should match. Your phone may be accessing an additional source of contacts
