That's really up to your carrier. Many carriers to not allow customers to set the Caller*ID number. I don't know of ANY that let you set the Caller*ID name.
Well, pretty much all of them will let you send it over a PRI... it's just another facility message that their switch may choose to ignore or not. Even if it's not ignored, though, sending it won't really do you any good, as the end switch for the call (even if it's the same switch) will do a CNAM lookup for the CLID anyway, and throw away any name you may have supplied.
However, if you are using VOIP carriers, this may not necessarily be the case; if the carrier terminates the call via VOIP as well (so that there are no TDM (ISDN) links in the call path), the CNAM may very well be carried along and delivered to the recipient.
