Outlook won't auto-complete some of the names in my address book.  And it's driving me crazy!!!

I have a contact for each of moms whose daughters I teach.  I've saved each of their names in my contacts:  Cindy, Debby, and Mary.  If I start typing "Mary" into the to: field in the message form, everything is fine.  The program auto-completes and inserts Mary's name/address.  But when I type in "Cindy" or "Debby," Outlook says it has no idea who this person is, and has no suggestions, yet I can click "Check Names" and there is the name! What is going on?

It's probably the Autocomplete function doesn't have Cindy and Debbie included in the autocomplete list.  Autocomplete sometimes gets stupid that way.

Here's a more complicated fix it the first one doesn't work.
