It looks like the kindle is treating this as a LN, FN author, reordering it so it appears as FN LN. One way to fool the kindle is to use a charater that looks like a comma but isn't. Something like this:
- ‚ (single low-9 quotation mark),
- ❟ heavy low single comma quotation mark ornament
- ﹐small comma
You can replace the comma with the chosen character in a plugboard. NB: This only works when using calibre to send the book. Plugboards do nothing when using an external app to send the book such as Send to Kindle.
EDIT: you can replace the commas in the author_sort field in calibre using Manage Authors. These changes should be used by Send to Kindle, although I don't know that.
