My Android phone displays wrong contacts when calling

When someone calling me it displays another contact name instead of real caller. I'm using Android 4.4.2

So it's an LG G3 clone or knockoff phone? I'd guess that it's a firmware glitch, which wouldn't be that surprising for a phone like that. Not sure if there's anything you can do about it. Try a factory reset.

Is it mixing up your contacts, or is it displaying a totally unfamiliar contact?

Please excuse any typos or autocorrect derps.
 
It is really mixing the address book.
When someone calling me, I can see a different caller
ID (Contact Name - who is in my contact list)
This is a pickle.
 
Are they all Google contacts? If so, try removing your Google account completely in Settings>Accounts, then adding it back again. This will essentially clear out your Contacts database, then re-sync your contacts again.
