Once again The Real World (TM) often has more more than one answer to a problem. <br>Wikipedia says (the italics are mine): <br><br><b>CamelCase</b> (or <i>camel case</i>), also known as <b>medial capitals</b> or <b>Pascal case</b>,<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CamelCase#cite_note-0"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></a></sup> is the practice of writing words with some inner uppercase letters, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_noun_and_adjective" title="Compound noun and adjective" class="mw-redirect">compound words</a> or phrases in which the elements are joined without <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_%28computer_science%29" title="Whitespace (computer science)" class="mw-redirect">spaces</a>, while each element has a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalization" title="Capitalization">capital letter</a>
 within the compound. <br><br>Pascal case words always start with a capital 
letter, but <i>camel case allows the first letter to be either upper or 
lower case</i>, as in &quot;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patti_LaBelle" title="Patti LaBelle">LaBelle</a>&quot;, &quot;BackColor&quot;, or &quot;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPod" title="IPod">iPod</a>&quot;.<br>
