Sorting authors with same last name?

I'm coming across an issue with the way my Kobo sage is handling the author sort in my library. When I have two authors with the same last name, Kobo is sorting the books alphabetically as if they were all by the same author. For example, books on the device by Cormac McCarthy and Tom McCarthy are sorted in the library as:
Cormac McCarthy - No Country for Old Men
Tom McCarthy - Remainder
Cormac McCarthy - The Road
Tom McCarthy - Satin Island

I'd like to have that same list appear as:
Cormac McCarthy - No Country for Old Men
Cormac McCarthy - The Road
Tom McCarthy - Remainder
Tom McCarthy - Satin Island


In Calibre, I have the authors field formatted as FN LN. I'm using
Code:
library/{authors} - {title}
as the save template when sending the kepubs over to the Sage. I've tried messing around with plugboards to see if I can fix the issue, but I'm having no luck so far (the plugboard logic might be a little over my head). Does anybody have any idea if/how this is possible?
