Your cache may have been deleted if you played with the option "This is shared computer, don't store...". because ticking that option may immediately delete your cache, I am not sure though.

Your problem may be messenger can't access your cache on the computer, so it retrieve contacts' display name information from the server all the time (you may have noticed this because if you have a crowded list your sign-in delay will be longer in that case). But I will say again, deleting contact cache will not solve the problem because it is the reason of this. Before deleting cache, if you backed up it and copied to another computer and signed in on that computer, you would be able to see the proper names of your contacts again, this is my guess.
