Shows number instead of name

So I just got an HTC Explorer today and so far I love it. The only problem I've run into so far is when I call people or people call me. Some of my contacts when I call them them only their number shows up whereas others their name shows up. How do I get it so it shows the person's name for all of my contacts?

Are the names entered into ALL contacts on your phone? The name will only show up if you have edited the contact yourself with the name and number.

Looks like your contacts are messed up, check this post

you will learn how to manage your contacts over Google, and once your contacts are updated sync your phone.
