Contacts Malfunction

I can not find names when I enter the words in the contact search box, but if I enter the full number in the dial pad it shows the name of the owner.

Contacts last name cleared and appended to first name Recently (since last iOS update?) my contacts on both iPhone and iPad mini have mysteriously had their last names cleared out and stuck on the end of the first name. Even more strangely it’s not all of them, about 95%. Annoyingly when I correct some entries on both devices they get messed up again a few minutes later. Latest iOS, not (knowingly) using iCloud). Settings are for display first last, sort last first.
