What Xtrician means here is that he/she is using custom names without filling in a name for this contact him/herself wich isn't updating anymore on namechanges.

Xtrician: to do this you need to set the customname to (!N) - so not leaving it blank - , this tag represents the contact's friendlyname and will change when he/she alters his/her name. You can apply any color to (!N) you want. If you have set the customname to (!N) already and it isn't updating anymore, see if removing the customname and resetting it works.
