I've investigated, it's annoying me too, but it's not easy to fix. Or, more 
accurately, Global Identity is the fix, so use it.  I don't know why it's 
optional.

The chat styles currently use the display names of the metacontacts involved.

The myself metacontact containing all your details is initialised as your 
accounts are loaded.  The displayname of a metacontact is set when the first 
contact is added to it. Hence, unless it is changed by your Global Identity 
settings, it stays that way and you see the wrong displayname in your chats.

The alternative fix is to use contact display names or IDs instead of 
metacontact display names in the chat view.  This would mean altering the 3.5 
chat styles at least.  I'm not sure what would be involved in fixing this for 
the new Adium style chatview in 0.12.
