divegeester is not an upper-casian word demanding capitalisation of the D. It is more a personal pro-noun, indicative of a social association but also a descriptor.

What are you?

Ponderable is capitalized since names are.. does that make me a conformist?

My name started as a joke
because my 2 daughters wanted
me to go on facebook. I refused
to do so under my real name.

Johnny Longwoody was the handle I came up with.

I have since gone on to facebook under my real name
because my eldest daughter refused to speak to me
using this name.

I have several E mail addresses. Johnny Longwoody is one of them.

My handle is not capitalized because, well, I just don't care.

MontyMoose uses capitals because it is a proper name. The space is missing because when I signed up I was not sure if RHP would allow spaces. 😳

Kewpie was a brand name, although she's occasionally lowercased by people who don't remember that.

And 1860 rating is real nice my good friend, but Nimzowitsch would mop the board with both of us combined. 😛

On a recent visit home one of our sons (who lives in Japan) brought home some Kewpie Mayonnaise which apparently, according to him, is very popular there.
