I don't know. However something strange happened to me also while testing this issue.

While I have been using my new name for two days, I added myself to my contact list and the old name I used two days ago appeared in my contact list. I signed out and resigned in, then the new name came back to my contact list. I think it is a problem with contacts cache not being updated for yourself because your new name info isn't sent to yourself from servers. Yet I think if you delete cache, such a problem won't occur (or if you delete cache, you won't be able to see your display name, you'll see only your e-mail address). These are just my guesses, not the truth.
