This was your choice to fill the name that way. You can use the default of LN FN or change the tweak.

The other thing I noticed while importing was the report of duplicates: calibre seems to look only for the title to determine duplicates, and that's quite dangerous. I have many books that are titled "poems" in the collection, so I have to allow the duplicates to be added. However, there are also some real duplicates. It would be imperative to check the author's name too when checking for duplicates.

Turn on the Autosort/Automerge option. It's the one labeled: in Preferences|Import/Export|Adding Books| "If Books With Similar .. found, Merge..."
It will check both author and title.
