WHy is this a thing? how can i fix it?

This is so frustrating when people pay money to play this game and these things happen.

Thats intentional since 7.1.5

Blizzard disabled the ability for addons to customize friendly nameplates in raids because people were leveraging them to do things Blizzard considered bad for the game.

Preach did a video a while ago that discusses it.

Is there a way to make the names bigger then? I noticed this too and the default names on friendly players are too small for me. any way to get it bigger?

Not that im aware of, but you could check the CVars using AdvancedInterfaceOptions.

The most common thing people do is to hide everything except the names, traditionally with the nameplateShowOnlyFriendlyNames CVar.
