Huku, welcome to Mobileread

The plugin will only create collections from the exact text listed in Calibre columns (with a prefix if you want). So what you need to do is use Calibre to create a custom column to look exactly how you want it. This is a popular request so I think I'll add something to the first post - but for now see this post above: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=213

Be aware - this only works on version 0.7.45 of Calibre. version 0.7.46 has a bug in custom columns, and 0.7.44 and earlier didn't save custom column values to the Kindle. (Funnily enough I'll be changing the way I get column info to use the library instead of the Kindle for the next version...)
