AFAIK it just expands the aliases, i.e. calls expand-abbrev,
before trying completion, but it does nothing else.

`bbdb-complete-name' has troubled us regularly when trying
to add new features, so I dare hacking it and actually I do
not have any time left at the moment ....

Try `dabbrev-completion' or write your own function and
supply a patch ...
