First name of first author appearing in in-text citations
This is happening some of the time only the data looks normal in zotero, but for some reason when I add a citation to my thesis the first name or initials of the first autor appear. How do I fix?

Either an author’s name is entered inconsistently in your Zotero library, or the style specifies to add initials or names to disambiguate same-name authors (e.g., APA says to do so, even if the items have different co-authors or years).
