This is normally caused by having the number stored under two contacts, so the phone doesn't know which to display.

It could be you have both SIM and Phone contacts active? Its not a good idea to store your contacts on the SIM, it greatly restricts what you can store. You should keep them on the phone and get into the habit of doing a regular backup onto your PC or an online service. Then when you get a new handset its trivial to transfer all your data across.
