"Hi Name" placeholder text in (and template for) text messages

Hello. When creating a new text message the placeholder text "Hi $Name" in the body of the message. It seems no matter what I do this text will get overwritten. Is there a way to continue after this text (usually I will want to start a message with "Hi Name" and would like not to retype it.

In fact it would be nice to be able to configure a template for messages eg "Hi $name. Best Wishes $Me." so that one can type the actual text in the middle.
