Did you start lsnrctl as root or as oracle?

> bash-2.03# ./lsnrctl start tnsnames

You tried to start the listener TNSNAMES.

> TNS-01151: Missing listener name, tnsnames, in LISTENER.ORA

lsnrctl cannot find the name TNSNAMES for a listener in your listener.ora (see Oracle Message Net8)

Sample of listener definition

LISTENER = <-- this is the listener name   (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
...

    )
  )

%lsnrctl start is like
%lsnrctl start listener see name code

%lsnrctl start tnsnames looks for a listener names TNSNAMES = ...

Hope it's helpful
