Help Link contact to a different Facebook

I've done my research and can't find this situation anywhere else, so hopefully somebody here can help.

I have the Galaxy Note LTE (rooted stock rom, GB), and have all of my contacts joined to their facebook profiles in my contacts. I like that it keeps track of their Pics for me for picture caller id. I have the "SyncMyPic" app to update contact photos from their facebooks from time to time too.

Here's the problem... I recently got married and my wife changed her name on her facebook profile. Now it doesn't seem to recognize her anymore. I've tried unjoining her contact from facebook, but when I ask it to rejoin, it still doesn't see her new profile(name/pic/anything), it just has her old one, but if I pick that one, it tells me it's "Unable to edit SNS contacts on phone" ?

I'm confused on how to resolve this issue, so any help is appreciated.

Also, as a side note, is the updating of facebook pics going to be resolved in ICS? What I'm asking is, will ICS help it automatically update profile images from facebook without me having to run SyncMyPic from time to time?

Thanks in advance to everyone! I'll be online most of today.
 
After much trial and tribulation, I found the app Facebook Contact Sync. I ran that, asked it to do a full manual sync. It unconnected all of my previously connected contacts so I had to go back in and do that again, but it did find my wife's facebook profile ok, and updated the link there, so now I have here linked that way, and everything works great!
