It seems like a lot of the given & surnames are flipped in my search results for this collection, but when I go to edit them they are placed in the correct fields. Is there a reason this is happening? Here are some examples:

It's just a mildly annoying bug, but any help is appreciated!

    Hungarian puts the surname first. The index is just displaying the names in Hungarian (even when they're actually in Latin and look Really Weird this way).
