This method comprises a step of providing in the system a first memory having storage areas for storing telephone numbers and names of callers as data therein, and a second memory for storing therein as data telephone numbers transmitted from callers in a during-absence automatic telephone answering state; a step of checking whether the telephone number transmitted from one of the callers in the automatic telephone answering state coincides with one of the telephone numbers registered in the first memory; a step of reading one of the names stored in the first memory in response to the telephone number coincident with one telephone number referred to above if it is determined to be positive in the second step; and a step of storing the telephone number transmitted from the one caller and the name thus read in the second memory. In addition, this vehicle telephone system basically includes a first memory, a second memory, a telephone number determining device, and a caller's name storing device.
