What we want to do is map the name attribute on each concrete sybtype of Contact to a different implementation 
(an individual name has two components parts [first and last name] whereas an entity name has only one). 

My basic problem is, Hibernate seems to understand the model when inserting (the right things get into the DB), but when I load() it brings back null in the name attribute. 
The odd thing is, I've added a debug statement to the setName() method and hibernate first sets the name attribute to the right thing (an IndividualName object with the right values) then (inside that same call to the load() method) sets the attribute to null, *on the same instance of ContactIndividual*. 

This is the model for what I'm trying to do: 
public abstract class Contact{ 
public abstract Name getName(); 
public abstract void setName(Name name); 
} 
public class ContactIndividual extends Contact {...} 
public class ContectEntity extends Contact {...} 
public class Name { } 
public class IndividualName extends Name {...} 
public class EntityName extends Name {...}
