my experience with this is the carrier is doing some matching of presented
number (what you are sending them) to their records of the 'owner' of that
number.  If for example you present your billing telephone number to them
they will send out your name with the number but otherwise I have had little
success.

I have heard of working with a local/regional ps or carrier 911 coordinator
to have this fixed but have had no experience with it.
