Importing XML, name suffix 'Jr.' gets stripped from names

edited October 18, 2018
I'm importing an EndNote XML (actually generated by Bookends). Every 'Jr.' gets removed on import. Here's what it looks like in XML file:

<contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" size="100%">Cobb, Fields W., Jr.</style></author></authors></contributors>

After import, last name is "Cobb" and first is "Fields W.". No "Jr." Is that expected behavior?

Furthermore, when I manually add ", Jr." in Zotero, then leave and come back to the reference, it is gone! Unless I do it by clicking on one of the completions offered when I start typing. The behavior here is eluding me.
