Indeed, outbound_caller_id_name is just a variable.

To use it you have to tell the dialplan to set effective_caller_id_name=${outbound_caller_id_name}.
effective_caller_id_name IS a variable that actually gets used.
(The default dialplan does this.)

In my directory, I set the variable "effective_caller_id_name" instead of "internal_caller_id_name".  (I also set the "outbound_caller_id_name" variable just like your example, although that never seems to get sent to the PSTN.)
