gmail display name change

some of my contacts show up by name and email address. some only the email address. how can i change the display name to always populate by spelling of name? how do i change how google looks for the person i wish to send an email? i kind of like it when i have both the name and email address displayed.

perhaps i'm not understanding. i go to Google. then to contacts. i have opened the contact and it includes the person's first name, last and an email address. there is nothing to correct. when i try to type their name, which is way different than the address the system doesn't find their name. if i know the email address it will populate.
