I am not sure I understand.

If you receive an email from a sender whose email address is known
to BBDB, but the (first + last) name known to BBDB for this email
address does not match the name appearing in the email, then the
user variable bbdb-add-name controls how BBDB should handle this
situation.  The default value of bbdb-add-name is 'query.
If this is indeed the cause of your problem, then the value nil may
solve your problem.
