Clear the messenger cache, you can find instructions around...

It may help...

Hey dudes. I had this problem as well. I kinda fixed it by signing onto web messenger and changing my name. I logged back onto the real msn and hey presto for some reason I can change my display name and crap.

WTF is going on?

Oh and you need to re-add your contacts. :(
