I checked all the answers to my question (how to add two mobile numbers to one contact in iPhone) but I didn't see a clear answer.
A lot of my contacts have more than one mobile number, and while my android phone syncs beautifully with gmail contacts (multiple mobile numbers), my iPhone 4 only allowing me one mobile number. After that when I click on add, I get a list of home,work,fax,etc. But no second mobile number.
My 5 years old Nokia phone let me add custom labels to any phone number, like I can add a number and name it "boat phone" , gmail contacts also can do it.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

A custom label will have to suffice here. I have many contacts with their cell phones listed as 'mobile', and then a custom 'Google Voice' labeled number.
[edit]
An alternative to this is to make the change via Address Book.app on your computer, then sync the contacts to your phone.
Custom labels are available in all contact adding/modification screens.
First, browse to a contact, and tap the label name (to the left of a phone number, e-mail address, etc.). You will see the list of labels.
Second, swipe all the way to the bottom, and tap on "Add Custom Label".
Type in a new Custom Label;
And then it will be displayed next to the number.
It will now appear in a list of custom labels on later access.
