11. A communication apparatus, comprising:

one or more processors;

one or more memory devices coupled to the one or more processor, wherein the one or more memory devices have stored therein instructions when executed by the one or more processor to cause the communication apparatus to operate by:

receiving an identification of a called party and an identification of a first user equipment (UE) device of a calling party for establishing a communication between the calling party and the called party;

based on the identification of the first UE device of the calling party, receiving a list comprising a plurality of MSISDNs;

based on the identification of the called party, selecting a MSISDN of the plurality of MSISDNs as a caller-id for displaying on a second UE device associated with the called party;

receiving a message for authenticating the first UE device;

retrieving a profile corresponding to the first UE device including an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) of the first UE device;

building a response message including a list of MSISDNs associated with the IMSI; and

sending the response message to a mobile application.

12. The communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the communication apparatus is the second UE device.

13. The communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the communication apparatus is one among an application server, an application server at a mobile switching center (MSC), or an application server at an MSC on a random access network (RAN).

14. The communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the communication apparatus is one or more among an originating mobile switching center and a terminating mobile switching network.

15. The communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the intructions when executed by the one or more processors further cause the one or more processors to:

parse the received response message; and

display the list of MSISDNs.

16. The communication apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the instructions when executed by the one or more processors caus the one or more processors to receive designations for active MSISDNs and inactive MSISDNs.

17. The communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the list comprising the plurality of MSISDNs comprise one among a list of a plurality MSISDNs for a single subscriber identity module (SIM), a plurality of MSISDNs for a single mobile device, a plurality of MSISDNs used over multiple international mobile subscriber identities (IMSIs).

18. The communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the communication apparatus is one among a personal digital assistant (PDA), desktop workstation, laptop computer, notebook computer, netbook, tablet, smartphone, smartwatch, another type of wearable, appliance, part of an Internet-of-Things device, an embedded system device, an application server, or a mobile switching center.

19. A system for displaying a plurality of mobile station international subscriber directory numbers (MSISDNs), comprising:

one or more processors;

one or more memory devices coupled to the one or more processor, wherein the one or more memory devices have stored therein instructions when executed by the one or more processor to cause the communication apparatus to operate by:

receiving an identification of a called party and an identification of a first user equipment (UE) device of a calling party for establishing a communication between the calling party and the called party;

based on the identification of the first UE device of the calling party, receiving a list comprising a plurality of MSISDNs;

based on the identification of the called party, selecting a MSISDN of the plurality of MSISDNs as a caller-id for displaying on a second UE device associated with the called party;
