email contacts

The problem I am having is when I start typing in a contact into the To: section, the available contacts for that string of letters comes up but not all of them. For example, I was trying to send a email to somebody named Bruce, I started typing Br and Brandon and Brent came up but no Bruce. So I started checking other contacts and many are not auto filling so I have to find it and manually enter it. Does it have something to do with the contacts that were imported from facebook? Seems like the ones that don't autofill are imported from facebook but the email address is on the contact info. Make sense?
 
The list that pops up often only shows the top 2 or three contacts, not everything, simply because the list may be long. Often times on other apps, long pressing on the popup shows the entire list of possibilities. Otherwise just continue typing.
 
I tried the long press with no luck and when I continue to type and make it past the common letters, nothing else pops up, I have to enter the whole address. Is there a way to bring up the entire contacts list from the email program to pick and choose from the list?
