Summary:
When receiving notifications for SMS messages received from people in my address book, the contact's phone number is displayed in the notification instead of their contact name. iMessages received display the contact name in the notification as expected.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive a notification of an SMS message from a contact

Expected Results:
The notification should display the name of the contact who sent the message.

Actual Results:
The notification displays the phone number of the contact who sent the message.

Version:
iOS 9.1 [13B143]

Notes:
This problem first started occurring on my old iPhone 5s 64GB when I installed iOS 9 beta 5 on it. It continued when I upgraded that phone to the release version of iOS 9 and when I restored my encrypted iTunes backup of that phone to my new iPhone 6s. It has occurred for every version of iOS 9 I've installed so far.

A friend has seen the same issue on her iPhone 4S and replacement iPhone 5s, both running iOS 9. 

Configuration:
iPhone 6s 128GB O2, using cellular 4G
