By this way you can get the saved contact name from inbox.. call the method getAllSms() to get the details..

 public void getAllSms() {
    Uri message = Uri.parse("content://sms/");
    ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
    Cursor c = cr.query(message, null, null, null, null);
    startManagingCursor(c);
    int totalSMS = c.getCount();
    if (c.moveToFirst()) {
        for (int i = 0; i < totalSMS; i++) {

            Log.d("SMSss",
                    "Contact number : "
                            + c.getString(c
                                    .getColumnIndexOrThrow("address"))
                            + "
"
                            + "msg : "
                            + c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("body")
                            + "
"
                            + "ID : "
                            + c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("_id"))
                            + "
"
                            + "Person : "
                            + getContactName(
                                getApplicationContext(),
                                    c.getString(c
                                            .getColumnIndexOrThrow("address"))));

            c.moveToNext();
        }
    }
    c.close();

}

public String getContactName(Context context, String phoneNumber) {
    ContentResolver cr = context.getContentResolver();
    Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI,
            Uri.encode(phoneNumber));
    Cursor cursor = cr.query(uri,
            new String[] { PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME }, null, null, null);
    if (cursor == null) {
        return null;
    }
    String contactName = null;
    if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
        contactName = cursor.getString(cursor
                .getColumnIndex(PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME));
    }
    if (cursor != null && !cursor.isClosed()) {
        cursor.close();
    }
    return contactName;
}
