Before you can use any non-Hotmail/Live address on Messenger you need to register it as a Live account (formerly MSN Passport). Doing this will give you a full Live account, including a profile. A Hotmail inbox is one of the few things you won't get (because you obviously already have an inbox elsewhere).
You don't need Facebook, your name is taken from your Live profile.
Yahoo contacts in the Messenger beta are still displayed the same (nicknames) afaik, nothing changed there.
