New Query, Same Topic

I'm a new Kindle 3 owner. I've been using Calibre to organize, convert and download my books to my reader and have been mostly hanging around the "By Collections" display.

Today I wanted to do a quick search for an author and flipped over to the "By Author" display and am horrified to discover that the listing there is by the author's FIRST name. (I don't even want to know why someone decided that would be useful.)

I'd like to set my By Author listing to sort by author surname. What are my options? Is this a Kindle setting issue, or a "that can be tweaked in Calibre" issue?

(Edited to add...) Further reading indicates that I might be able to resolve this with Calibre, and I'll take my research over there, but if you have any tips, hints or alternative suggestions to offer, I'd be grateful.
