I tend to view capitalisation as a design element not a part of the
name. If they write their name in Comic Sans then I won't try to copy
that either, so why copy funny capitalisation that is only intended to
attract attention.
On the wider topic of writing names as they are on the sign, I would
agree with this up to a certain point. It is entirely possible for a
business to name itself "Fred's Bagels the BEST Bagels in Northern
California Inc", at which point I would say they are starting to game
our rules, hoping to be put on the map with exactly that name - and I'd
reduce the name to "Fred's Bagels", putting the rest in "offical_name"
or something.
Bye
Frederik
