Goto contacs (all people)....select a name...click menu (bottom right)....select edit....minimize keyboard....scroll down to where FILE AS is....doe, john....highlight it with finger or stylus. Gives you options on how you want it displayed. doe, john.....john doe....doe.....john.....do it the same for all contacts

Slap that green button for me!!!

I know this works... but is there a way to choose the default?

Nope. default is last,first. What you can do is, when entering a contact such as john doe....enter it as doe john. It thinks then john is the last name automatically filing it as john doe.
