Default sorting names alphabetically when names may start with numbers

Anyway to sort names alphabetically when names may start with
numbers?

I have a list of name of chemicals. The names may start with
numbers, like 1,2-dichlorobutane. Right now, if I sort the list,
the names start with numbers would be on the top. How do I make it
ignore nubmers and sort alphabetically?
