Viber, a popular app where I live, does exactly the same thing TrueCaller does. It drives me crazy.

The only solution I can think of is that everyone start using one-time numbers.

You still have a main number and a number "domain service". When you call someone you get a new number, the call receiver can get your name out of the "domain service" only if you have that number in your address book.
