What is the order of favorite contacts in People? [answered]

Seems, that it is not alphabetic order.
Is it possible to influence to that order? If not, then this could be turned into a feature request.
Hmm. I have set my family members as favorites (+ my brother & father). I have put only their first names in their information. In the settings I have both "Show last name first" and "Sort by last name" on.
The order of them is following: "Akseli", "Pekka", "Tauno", "Eero", "Elina", "Liisa" !? So we might have a small bug here?
Upp15 ( 2014-01-06 13:21:34 +0300 )@MattVogt: No, they are not variants. But I finally figured out, what is the reason for that "disorder": for "Eero", "Elina" and "Liisa" I had put their first names in the field "Last name", while the others had their first names in the correct field. :D
So no bug here after all ...
Upp15 ( 2014-01-18 19:25:02 +0300 )I have imported contacts from my previous phone. Apparently I had lots of contacts with only partial name, and now it is a total mess to find anything, as this list is not sorted - Accountant appears after Anna. I can't think of why it can be useful to sort separately contacts without fisrt/lastnames, last name only etc. All names should be sorted alphabetically in the order their appear in the address book.

In my case it IS definitely an alphabetic order for the favourites in People.
zlatko ( 2014-01-05 10:03:38 +0300 )Seems also to be alphabetical here with a mixture of GTalk Facebook and addressbook friends. Is it possible your contacts are being sorted on a secondary field or have differing names on differing services?
