I can merely say that I cannot reproduce this.
Forget the gnus stuff. Put

  "Sam [guest]" <gu...@bioconductor.org>

into the To: field of a message. Call

  bbdb-mua-display-recipients

What do you get? If I setup this test, the "[guest]" in the name
gets ignored (see mail-extract-address-components). So "Sam" becomes
the last name of the above recipient. And this should not match the
entry of "Sam Robb". (It doesn't do that for me.)

I don't know your personal extensions of BBDB.
