Firefox sorts the bookmarks any way it wants. I click on "Sort by name" and Firefox does so. The next time I open Firefox the bookmarks are NOT sorted by name.

Are you sorting via the right-click context menu?

The Views menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) is for viewing the bookmarks in a different sorting order (hence the name Views) and doesn't sort bookmarks permanently.
Clicking the column header does the same.
If you want to sort bookmarks then you need to right-click a folder and use "Sort By Name" to sort that folder.
You can't sort individual bookmarks, only folders can be sorted this way.
