Almost everyone has that problem. Your only options are to: 1) import and get the metadata from the filename, or 2) run regex Search and Replace after import to fix up the bad stuff.
that is my original problem, is that a regex can find 'firstname lastname' and replace them as ''lastname, firstname''?
Most people use regex and filename, then get the cover from online or open the metadata editor and tell it to grab the cover from inside the file.
