Bug Description

The alphabetical sort in nautilus has a small error in English:
Sarah is treated as going before Sara instead of after, and derivative examples. This is obviously low priority but it bothers me and its conceivable for this so cause someone (ie a photographer) a considerable problem. A coworker independently replicated it an hour ago. It affects both folders and files and isn't case sensitive. Replicated on fully updated Ubuntu Gnome 16.04.2.

That's not doing it here on 16.04 with en_US locale. Do you still see tha tissue even in newer Ubuntu version? Could you take a screenshot showing the issue?
