You managed to change the file name. This has no effect on the reader's display.

If you want the title to read a certain way go into Calibre and change the title.

I'm not sure what you're doing, in the attached example this book will show on my reader under a collection "Joe Pitt". If you are not forming a collection then you have no tags or series info set in the metadata.

You might be happier with PRS+ which allows you (on your PRS-505) to browse your reader by folder. Then you can see the file names under their author folder just like you want them. It is a very easy install. Give it a try.
