Help Facebook linked contact priority?

I want to link a few of my contacts with facebook so that I pull facebook info and get their profile pic. I know how to do this. However, I'd prefer to keep the name I already have for them on my phone. For example:

Say I have "Jon" saved on my phone.
His facebook profile name is Jon McJonjon.

When I link the profiles, now his contact will read Jon McJonjon. I'd prefer to keep the name I previously had for him as his contact name.

Any way to prioritize which profile you're linking is the main contact name that shows up under the contacts list?
 
I tried this, and i think it cannot be done. The Facebook name seems to have priority. I ended up unlinking a few contacts because of that.
