Contact Name not updated properly

I have problem while changing/updating the contact name in the contacts. It doesn't update/show the name as given in the contacts application, instead it will show the name from the whatsapp directory.
Steps to check the issues,
1. Create and save one Phone number with any two different combination names, like given name with suffix or prefix with family name, mainly the number should have whatsapp account.
2. After the contact has been saved first-time, both the name with contact and whatsapp account has been created and linked together.
3. Try to edit the saved contact.
4. Now update the contact name, try removing suffix and retain given name as it is.
5. You can see the contact has been saved information at bottom but indeed the contact will still be the same as like first time creation/whatsapp name.
6. It doesn't intake the phone name instead retrieve and display the name from WhatsApp account.
7. Now try one more fun, delete all the names, still it shows the whatsapp name. How strange it is. Haha. This is creating lot and lot's of trouble for me. Try fixing it in next update. Waiting for your response.
Thank you in advance,

Yes still Im facing the issue. I have strong 4G connection and the problem happens everytime when I try to update the name. May it is due to application optimization? But I had disabled for whatsapp. Just wondering how this bug occurs.
