Default Drop Down Menu for Paragraph Selection


I need a method of selecting various paragraphs in a doc. I have used the drop down menu but it only displays the Name not the Value. The text to be inserted is a full paragraph. If I put the paragraph in the "Display Name" of the drop down box, then you can tell what you are inserting, because you can't read the entire paragraph.

I have uploaded an image.

Is there a better way to users to select from some type of list what text to enter?
