No, I think on reflection I will continue to blame VB6. On the plus side, the code so far is not dead awful but it is visibly aged in the approach. No refactoring yet, I've agreed that we'll get it working with as little changes as possible [he laughs] and then look at more robust approaches.

MacAskill and (definitely) MacNamara look like they are real Macs. This kind of code just implies your input and/or requirements are crap, though. People should be trusted to type their own name as they want it.
This goes back to a more elegant age where people couldn't use puters.

I have a Scottish friend called Macaskill who definitely does not capitalise internally, and the others were ascertained by looking through the telephone directories of several major British cities, though I think Macnamara[^] is a special special case - some capitalise and some don't
