I don't think so, this is something specific to telepathy-qt and it's
not documented. I guess the best documentation for you is the source
code [1] :)

My guess is that telepathy-logger and Empathy try to get the contact's
name by using the Connection.I.Aliasing interface [2]. Do you implement
Tp::BaseConnectionAliasingInterface [3] in your CM?
