As best I can tell, your .bbdb file has a notes field called "name" in
at least one of the records. This is colliding with BBDB's "real" name
field, causing the stacktrace above. Probably the easiest way to check
this is to see if there's a mention of "name" in the second line of
the .bbdb file (user-fields: ....); failing that, search the file
itself for "name . " and see what you come up with. If this /is/ the
case, you'll need to hand-edit the .bbdb file to change "name" to
something else. I'm not really sure how you'd get your .bbdb into this
state in the first place, btw!

Cheers,
Waider.
