Indexing Catholic Nuns

I am reviewing US—City Directories, 1903–1935 [Part N] [MQRC-JGL] and have come to a long list of entries of Catholic nuns. The indexer has used the title "Sister" as the given name and the name the nun took upon taking her vows as her surname.
Need clarification if these are correctly indexed. I would have indexed "Sister" as a prefix with the name taken as her given name with no surname.

Sister should be the prefix, the Given Name is Hubert, Laure, etc. with the Surname left blank.
