Hi Daniel, This value is set in org.dspace.browse.SolrBrowseCreateDAO.additionaIndex() using the value returned by getLabel() method of your class implementing ChoiceAuthority interface.
Maybe your class return the value of second parameter "key" as-is in the same manner as LCNameAuthority. You have to edit your code to return author name. Another way is editing SolrBrowseCreateDAO class itself. Replace the following lines https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/browse/SolrBrowseCreateDAO.java#L217-227 to if (!ignorePrefered) { preferedLabel = values[x].value; } But in this case, when more than one name has the same authority code, each name is counted and displayed separately. So I do not recommend.
