Which as you can see is not really the desired behavior. I created a
test table and loaded these values into a field of type text, and then
issued the following query:

 select * from test order by 1;
name --------
 Ta, A
 Tab, A
 Ta, Z
(3 rows)

Unlike on some systems, in PostgreSQL "ORDER BY 1" means order by the constant value "1", not the first column. Try "ORDER BY name".
