From the tweak
Quote:
The algorithm used to copy author to author_sort
Possible values are:
invert.....: use "fn ln" -> "ln, fn"
copy.......: copy author to author_sort without modification
comma......: use 'copy' if there is a ',' in the name, otherwise use 'invert'
nocomma....: "fn ln" -> "ln fn" (without the comma)
When this tweak is changed, the author_sort values stored with each author must be recomputed by right-clicking on an author in the left-hand tags pane, selecting 'manage authors', and pressing 'Recalculate all author sort values'.
The author name suffixes are words that are ignored when they occur at the end of an author name. The case of the suffix is ignored and trailing periods are automatically handled. The same is true for prefixes.
The author name copy words are a set of words which if they occur in an author name cause the automatically generated author sort string to be identical to the author name. This means that the sort for a string like Acme Inc. will be Acme Inc. instead of Inc., Acme

From what you written I suspect you need to have
copy in
author_sort_copy_method, but if that doesn't produce the result you want, try the other values and redo the
Recalculate all....
If you're concerned you might lose what you've already done then before doing anything take a backup of your library, and make sure you know how to do a restore from it.
