Is there any simple way do do this?

If the "Authors list in Calibre shows Title-names, you still have bad Author Metadata for books.
Try this:
Click on the Luggage tag (if the tag browser is not visible)
Expand the Authors list. Find a incorrect (title name) Author and click once (red plus appears)
Those are the book(s) that have that name (if there are more than 1 book, you probably have duplicate titles)
Select a title and Click the edit metadata button at the top.
If the Author, title are interchanged, use the swap button.
Make any other corrections (remember Author Sort (now shows in RED if a mis-match with other rules))
Save.
