Línea de trabajo

Start by reproducing the duplicate: create a local contact with a multi-word suffix such as "the Great" and a phone number linked to WhatsApp, then compare how the local entry and the WhatsApp entry are displayed. The payload names no source files, so locate where the app builds the displayed name from first name, last name and suffix, and where it matches contacts to WhatsApp data. Done means both entries merge into one with the suffix shown consistently, verified by the steps in the report.

Steps to reproduce the bug
  1. Create a new contact with the following details:
  • First Name: John (or leave blank and use Last Name)
  • Last Name: (leave blank or use Smith)
  • Suffix: "Great" (one or more words)
  • Phone Number: [A number linked to a WhatsApp account]
    OR:
  • First Name: John
  • Last Name: Smith
  • Suffix: "the Great" (multiple words with space)
  • Phone Number: [A number linked to a WhatsApp account]
  1. Wait for the contact to sync with WhatsApp.
  2. Open the Fossify Contacts app.
Expected behavior

The local (or google/dav) contact and the WhatsApp contact should be merged into a single entry.

Actual behavior

The contact is displayed twice:

  1. The local (or google/dav) entry, displayed as saved with comma (e.g., "John, the Great").

  2. The WhatsApp entry, displayed without the comma

  • "Great John" (suffix before Name, if only first or last Name)
  • "John Smith the Great" (if first and last Name)
