Last names usually first and you have:
kulAs
kulLas
So A comes before L thus Kulas gets filed before Kullas.
If they had the same last name but one was John and one Johnathan then no letter gets filed before A so John_ would get filed in front of JohnAthan.
Get it? Blanks always before A, A before any other letter and letters before numbers.

Kulas due the fact that a comes before l in the alphabet

shorter goes first
And you know, if one has only 1 l and the other has 2 ls, then the shorter one is first anyway

The shorter name, if you spell the surname correctly.
