Corrupted short names in Word plugin citations

Hi all...

I'm having problems with the formatting of short-format names in citations in Word. For example, a citation that should look like this in APA style:

(Ericsson & Charness, 1994)

Looks like this instead:

(K.Anders Ericsson & Charness, 1994)

That is, first names are included. This happens irregularly to some citations/authors and not others. Also, it happens in an older document with these references but not if I create a new, empty, word document and add the same reference from scratch. (And everything looks fine in the Zotero client (version 2.1.6 - Firefox 4)).

The names look fine in the bibliography in all cases.

I have tried changing formats, refreshing, and removing and re-adding references in the old document but nothing works. I even tried breaking the zotero connection and re-add references from scratch but it still does not work.

So - What's up? Any ideas on a fix or workaround? (Other than editing all corrupt citations by hand)
