Your telco is probably setting the callerid name to whatever
their own database maps that number to.  Also, I'm not sure
if that numbering scheme will work, I would try adding ()'s.
Something like this in zapata.conf:

    callerid="VERTEX" <(NNN) NNN-NNNN>

Can't say about anything about sip, tho.
