It is now Indian format. In Western Countries they write surname first and since the Operating system of N82 was made in Europe somewhere it is like this.

Nothing to be worried :)

Did you change contacts from Phone memory to SIM memory?

Just check if your newer contacts are stored in sim memory or phone memory. And compare those to older ones. If both are same then ignore my posts.

This happened to me also in the Nokia 6681... But I can give an additional info: It started occurring ONLY after I flashed the firmware here in a service center.. There was no particular reason for flashing, I just wanted to clean out all the junk..! But after that, this niggle came up...
@Ronnie11 : Did you do anything like that..?
