p.s.
Once you've got a reliable CNAM source, you can save a few bucks per month on
all of your POTS lines & PRI spans by opting out of the carrier-provided CNAM.
IIRC, We save something like $40 per month per span on our PRI's & $3 per month
per line by opting out of CNAM. When a call comes in we populate it ourselves
using a quick HTTP GET.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Caller ID (name) - where does it come from?
Hi Folks, having an issue with outbound calls through a VOIP provider. Calls
get sent out with the CallerID(number), but where does callerID(name) come
from? Apparently not from provider, as we are seeing different (sometime
missing) names on inbound calls, different than what we have configured.
Apparently this comes from some telco database somewhere? Numbers were ported
from a wired-telco.
