I'm having a weird issue with my Nook Glowlight Plus where it won't display the middle initials or middle names of authors in the Library list view.

For example:
Edgar Allan Poe shows up as Edgar Poe. F. Scott Fitzgerald is F. Fitzgerald.

If I look in the metadata in Calibre, the Author is listed as "Edgar Allan Poe" and the Author Sort is "Poe, Edgar Allan".

Has anyone else come across this before? Curious if there's a setting on the Nook or in Calibre that I need to adjust.

Interestingly, on the Nook, if I click the "View Details" page for a book, the full author name IS listed there.

Thank you in advance for your help!
