Ok so anyone on Android running into this issue with contacts…. I assume these are G+ contacts. Should I believe that this happens because these users are only entering a first name..
I'm using a Galaxy Note 3, and have the same contacts icon. I think it's a Samsung thing, not Android/Google. In settings you can choose display first name first, or last name first. But I can't see anything for first name only.
Are you running Lollipop? Is your font size too large?
Lollipop 5.0.2 latest everything… It could easily be the way they are pulling g+ contact info etc… Seems strange… Just like when you install waze there are hundreds of duplicate contacts for that service.. Then you have to try to merge them all…
I do not think I have any options in waze to have it not sync waze contact info…. I have found that if waze is matching on phone info.. People use many fake general numbers that sync to big companies and business phone numbers…
Hahaha not very helpful!
Lots of strange issues with Android contacts..
All my Andrews have last names…
No my phone's contact list does not do that, but I can see how that could be Andy.
Can you show us the icon you're selecting to open your contact list?
+Jared Ribic on the new s6 edge in touch wiz it is the orange contacts spare with the head in the middle.

I have the contacts app only sync my Google account for contacts, nothing else.

I know nothing about waze.
Thankfully this appears to be the solve for the WAZE issue. https://tervehn.se/avoidingremoving-duplicate-contacts-waze/
