That's true, especially for a name like "ChucK", which as far as I've seen, has been consistently spelled with that capital "K" in research papers where it's turned up.
OTOH, the name ChucK is more distinctive *because* of the extra uppercase.
On another note, I think Desire Data should be renamed :) Data just for the fun that would happen when someone tries to type that name into ms word.
Sorry, could you please explain the joke. I don't know anything MS Word does.
If I cared about that kind of pranks, I'd be more inclined to call a piece of software «that software» (all lowercase, without the doublequotes, no trademark symbol) and watch the trouble that ensues. But that's quite hypothetical. In reality, there is already enough trouble arising from uncovering ordinary everyday confusion, that there's nothing that I'd want to actually add to the mess.
