I have a question that I hope someone can answer.
Some epubs have a metadata tag for author that if typically Firstname Mi Lastname. Others have no such tag at all.
When books are added to calibre they all end up with the author name showing as FN MI LN.

For my simple brain this makes for a disorders file structure on the disk since the folder names all mirror the author name. As a result I can never find anything because I can't remember an authors first name.

So I have been manually renaming each book so the author is LN, FN MI with no periods (which translate to _ in the folder names).

The question is: How can I, when adding a book, get the author name formatted the way I prefer. I have tired reading the docs and searching but I have yet to figure out how to do it.

If anyone can tell me how to accomplish this it would be a really great help.

Thanks
