Your "nickname" list or "autocomplete" list is NOT related to your contact list. The autocomplete list is simply a list of your most commonly used email addresses. It holds up to 1,000 entries. Simply highlight the name you want gone and delete it by right-clicking and scrolling to delete OR press the delete key.
