This plugin is very useful. Thank you so much.
I did however stumble upon something weird. Perhaps someone can help me out.

In my book collection I have books by Tim Green and Alistair MacLean. When I check author sorting the plugin tells me that all books of Tim Green are sorted wrong unless I change author sort to all capitals. so instead of 'Green, Tim' it want's me to use 'GREEN, TIM'.

And for MacLean I have to use 'Maclean, Alistair' instead of MacLean, Alistair. The plugin want's me to change the 'L'.
But I have more Scottish authors in my collection and they are ok, like McNab or MacLeod. Nothing weird going on there.

I have no idea what is going on here. I even opened the epub files with Sigil to look at the metadata.

I should not forget to add that calibre automatically changes 'Green, Tim' to 'GREEN, TIM' and 'MacLean, Alistair' to 'Maclean, Alistair' if I press the blue arrow in the metadata screen. It doesn't do things like this for any other author in my collection.

On my device these authors get very often sorted wrong also. They very often sort on first name.

Can anybody help me out?
(Please forgive me if I am repeating an already answered question)
