Abstract:This invention relates, in general, to the field of telecommunication devices and particularly phone handsets. Modern
telephones provide facility of identifying incoming call by creating a mapping of incoming call number to some name.
This invention explains a method to identify the incoming call by using the wildcard entries in the phonebook
comprising the steps of: providing the called party number to the telephone instrument by service provider when a
telephone receives a call; matching the number in phone book entries having one-to-one number to name mapping;

against wildcard entries in phonebook if the number does not match any of the one-to-one entries; and displaying the
name corresponding to the wildcard entry if a prefix of incoming call number matches to the prefix specified in
