I found the answer.

the default function of the KFX Output plugin is to use the calibre Tweaks functions for metadata.

In Preferences >Tweaks > Author sort name algorithm I changed the author_sort_copy_method = 'comma' to author_sort_copy_method = 'copy'

apply changes to tweak, restart calibre then convert to KFX. the metadata will be embedded in the KFX file.

Then the author name shows up as the first name then last name order in Kindle Previewer.
This will then display the name as first name last name in the Kindle.
More misinformation from Jon.
