Hallo,
I have contacts with the same email-address for the professor and the secretary. So I save two cards: Once with Prof. Smith and once with Mrs. Miller. Both with email [e-mail]. That is O.K.
If I put one of this cards to a list, the diaplayed name of the other card will be overwritten  with the value from the card in the list.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create two different cards with the same email-address
2.create a list and add one of the cards to the list
3.

Actual Results:  
both cards have the same displayed name

Expected Results:  
the cards must be unchanged

Sometimes I also would be add both cards to the same list. Today that is not possible. By cleaning the bug it would nice to add this feature.
