Caller ID with Name

By , About.com Guide

Definition:

This is an advanced flavor of the Caller ID feature with the name of the caller displayed. Thus, before answering the phone, you can know the real name of the person, that which is registered with their service provider. The number as well can be displayed.

Note that you will need a caller ID enabled phone with a touch tone to be able to use this feature.
