     this.getStyle().setBorder(Border.createLineBorder(1, 0x666666));     
      return this;
    }

The problem you have is that you placed both the name and icon label inside a container. You did not set the layout of the container. You dont have to use a container, but if you must set its layout. Put the image on the WEST or EAST of the BorderLayout and then put the container in the center.

setLayout(new BorderLayout());

Container cnt = new Container();
cnt.setLayout(new BoxLayout(BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));

name.getStyle().setBgTransparency(0);
name.getStyle().setFont(Font.createSystemFont(Font.FACE_SYSTEM, Font.STYLE_BOLD, Font.SIZE_SMALL));

cnt.addComponent(name);

addComponent(BorderLayout.WEST, icon);
addComponent(BorderLayout.CENTER, cnt);
