I am querying single contact data by contact id, but there is no contact 
name in the response (attached). <title> element text is empty.

However, the user confirmed that contact name is visible in Google Contacts 
UI. From the screenshot sent by user I can see that this contact is 
connected to a Google+ profile. Am I guessing correctly that Google 
Contacts UI "borrows" contact name from Google+ profile, but the name in 
underlying contact data is still blank?

This becomes a problem for my contact sync application, because (at least 
for this user) contact names are not being synchronized. Is there a way to 
determine if the contact is linked to a G+ profile?

Thanks!
