are you using the Watch Helper app? it does'nt show the name, try sync contacts between the two devices and see if it changes, i do'nt use this app cos it is very limited and i use m2d but also there are Watch Droid and Swapp Link.

I used Watch helper for a bit but it was a constant pain having to listen to BT disconnect sound which you could’t switch off. I use M2D now so I guess that app deals with BT calls now. I will ask the dev about it. Thanks

Is there any app that allows to reply to SMS ? I just found out that M2D doesn't have that capability.

Ok so it needs constant Internet access. Wouldn't it be possible to get it working over BT Internet tethering as well?

Seems like it is one of the most important feature for people who don't use sim cards in their watches so I think the video would be useful:)

Also after a bit of testing Watchdroid it looks like this is the app that allows to reply to SMS over bluetooth.
I also tested stock e-mail app that works as well.  Good call with Watchdroid Sonia seems it just what I was looking for. Need to test how it deals with phone calls still though.
