add books - author FN/ LN issue - kindle books

i note that if I add a book from Kindle for PC, the author name almost always appears wrong way around & I have to flip FN, LN.

but if I add an epub from pretty much anywhere else it is usually fine.

so is it me, or do amazon store their author metadata the opposite way around to everyone else.

I see that I can tick a "flip it" box in add books preferences but it seems I really need one setting for mobi, a different setting for epub ?

I tried to search for an answer but the forum software, in its infinite wisdom, decrees that "first", "last" and "name" are all unsuitable search terms !
