This is driving me crazy. I'll get calls from people in my contacts but it'll only have the number. Not until I answer does their name and picture show up. I'm using go launcher but just the stock contacts.

They show in your contacts with names?

Are you syncing your contacts with Google or your carrier?

I would suggest syncing your contacts to your Google account (open Contacts app, press Menu, Merge With Google), after that go into your Application Manager > All than wiping the data from both Contacts & Contacts Storage, reboot, now go into Settings > Accounts and sync > *your Google account* and make sure Sync Contacts is checked. Hit Sync Now at the bottom, reboot once more, and give it a go.

Okay just kidding, this morning my dad called and the caller ID just had his number. When I answered it then it said who it was. Yesterday I had my friend call and she showed up so I'm at a loss.

Try the Contacts+ app. It's the only thing that worked for me after spending long hours trying to fix it through forums, labs and friends.
