Messaging (SMS) & Contacts Conflicting?

Hi guys, I am facing a weird issue with my Sony Z5: a friend got married and changed names, I updated her entry under Contacts and so far so good. Easy job. Now here is the weird thing: Text messages (SMS) under "Messages" are still showing her with her old name. I even tried completely deleting all texts and the contact entry under Contacts and recreating her entry from scratch but as soon as I texted her to test if it worked, her OLD name showed up under Messaging. Ironically when searching for her old name under Contacts, nothing comes up, and yet, Messaging keeps the association of the number and old contact name.

What is going on here? Kinda annoying and not sure if there is an rational explanation why this would happen.

Any feedback or ideas? Should some sort of cache be cleared?

This is for a Z5C with Marshmallow recently upgraded. Stock Firmware. Not rooted.

Thanks in advance,
OldSkewler
