I have found with the 3 eraders and 2 tablets I have used that the best way is to put the real values in the fields.ie David Wong in author and Wong, david in Author_sort.
Less confusing in the long run and for me reflects reality.
My advice would be to take one book, enter the correct values, and send it to the Kindle.
To avoid confusion, you should send a book not already on the kindle or delete book from kindle before resending.
If the author is not right, delete the book, convert the book in calibre and resend.
If still not correct then deselect 'use author sort for author' , delete the book and try again
Seems like a bother, but it is only one book and should not take that much time. Then you should have the correct method sorted out.
BTW it is not too likely that calibre will mess up an already nicely formatted ebook if you convert again using the mobi file as your source. Never happened to me and I have reconverted thousands.
I would suggest that you try the kindle collection plugin and kindle plugboards once you have resolved the current issue.
