In alphabetical order, or the order these would be listed in an index or filed in the library.

Reasons:
(a) 424 comes before 442, 443, 444
So F2424 comes before F2442, F2443, F2444

(b)
* After "GREG":
"-ERY" comes before "-GORY" and then "-ORY"
[because E comes before G and then O]
* Between the two "GREGORY" names:
"maRSha" comes before "maRY" [RS comes before RY]

(c)
* After "KUL":
"-AS" comes before "-IK" and then "-LAS"
[A comes before I and then L]
* Between the two "KULAS" names:
JOHN comes before
JOHNATHAN
because [ blank space ] comes before A

(d)
* After "THOMA":
"-AS" comes before "-S" [because A comes before S]
* Between the three "THOMAS" names:
micHAEL
micHAELE
micHELLE
because HAEL comes before HAELE
and micHA... comes before micHE

The rule is
* always compare the first letter or symbols
from left to right [beginning of the word to the end]
* for the first character that is DIFFERENT choose
the number or letter that comes first before the other
* then go to the next character that is DIFFERENT
and choose the number or letter that comes before the other

If you get confused, write the words with a square box around
the letters, stacked directly on top of each other, like

T H O M A S
T H O M A A S
and cross out from left to right
the letters that are the same, until you come across the
first letter that is DIFFERENT
(in this case, cross out T H O M A
and compare S to A to choose THOMAAS before THOMAS)
