Duplicate Entries in Contacts

Options

I had problems with this once before but for the life of me I can not find my original post so I will start over.  Due to problems with my Storm Verizon gave me another phone yesterday.  My problem now again is no matter if I create a new contact in Outlook or on the Storm I get a duplicate entry in the Storrm.  It puts one in by first name (which is what I want) and one by the last name.  Even if I create if from the Blackberry before a sync is even done I have the two entries.  I thought I had to go into the Blackberry settings someplace and tell it that all new entries by first name.  But I can not find that option anyplace.  Any help would be appreiated.
