Well on my kobo the authors on the my books tab are sorted by last name. The names that are displayed are fn ln. So internally they're using ln, fn. But in order for that to work properly you have to have your authors in calibre set up so that it's fn ln, and calibre has another column, author_sort, where it uses the same heuristic as the kobo and they're stored as ln, fn in it.
