Adding comma to names is correct depending on the context the name is used.

💄 Commas are used when rewriting names to present the surname first, generally in instances of alphabetization by surname: Smith, John.

💄 Adding comma to names is mostly used for citation, it is also used to separate the last name of an author from the initial of her/his first name.

There are two ways of writing your name.

💄 Secondly, In references that place the surname first, a comma is used to separate the last name of an author from the initial of her first name.

 This style is often used in the author lists in scholarly papers. If this were the case, her name would be cited as

 📌 "George, E." If she were to be referred to by her full name "Susan Elizabeth George," the cite would be "George, S. E."
