Display Name for User Accounts via Powershell

$

Greetings!

I have been importing User Accounts and am trying to get the accounts to display correctly within the OU. My CSV file has a column with display name and it includes something to the affect of: "Lastname, FirstName (Contractor)" and while the displayname attribute is correctly set it isn't translating to the visual displayname (which I believe used to be refered to as RDN). 

How can I force this value? Should I attempt to set the CN value? 

Also I have noticed something interesting when navigating through ADSI to set the default display name to <%sn>, <%givenname> that is only affective for users created within the AD console not users created via powershell.

Thank you in advance!
