Hello Zotero Team,

Thank you for developing such a fantastic citation management tool. I truly appreciate all the work that goes into making Zotero so helpful for academic writing.

I’ve encountered an issue with the bibliography generation using the "American Meteorological Society" citation style. Specifically, I’ve noticed inconsistencies in the formatting of author names for papers that have the same author list structure.

Here is an example of two papers that share the same author list format (two fields for names):

However, when generating the bibliography, I get the following results:

- Correct format (this is how I’d like it to appear):

Chen, Z., T. Zhou, X. Chen, W. Zhang, L. Zhang, M. Wu, and L. Zou, 2022: Observationally constrained projection of Afro-Asian monsoon precipitation. Nat. Commun., 13, 2552, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-30106-z.

This format correctly displays the first author's name as "last name, first name" and subsequent authors as "first initial. last name."

- Incorrect format:

Cao J., Hu J., and Tao Y., 2012: An index for the interface between the Indian summer monsoon and the East Asian summer monsoon. J. Geophys. Res., 117, 2012JD017841, https://doi.org/10.1029/2012JD017841.

In this case, all the author names are formatted as "last name first name" for each author, which is not the expected behavior.

For reference, here is the CSL code responsible for formatting the author section:

I’m wondering why this inconsistency happens and if there is a way to resolve it.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,
