The display name on Caller ID is determined by the receiving party's phone carrier. CNAM (?C-alling NAM-e?) are third-party services that phone companies use to attach the name to the phone numbers that are calling.

Caller ID reputation is a rating, similar to a credit score, that indicates the likelihood of a call being marked as spam or legitimate. The major cell network carriers (ie, Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, etc.) assign a reputation score to every phone number, based on a number of factors.

But how does your mobile carrier know what's a spam call? Relying on machine learning, an algorithm studies a database of known phone numbers from fraudulent or deceptive sources against behavioral analytics (i.e., how many people received calls from a number, frequency of calls, etc.).
