If I were you I would add a new column PLAIN_NAME or similar and I
would strip everything out everything you don't want in the name and
then sort by it. I think it would remove the complexity. You can
populate the new column with a before_save callback.

Thanks Walter and Kendall.
But ouput which I get using sort mentioned is as follows
>> a = [ "A Sharma", "A. Zah", "Aarti Jain", "A. Bansal", "Bindu Lakra" ]
=> ["A Sharma", "A. Zah", "Aarti Jain", "A. Bansal", "Bindu Lakra"]
>> a.sort {|x,y| y <=> x}
=> ["Bindu Lakra", "Aarti Jain", "A. Zah", "
