My students have various names that are often English translations of names in various Indian languages. Sometimes letters in the middle of names are capitalised for clarity, as in EagleSpeaker. Sometimes there are spaces, as in Everybody Talks About (I think it has spaces, anyway). One student of mine is surnamed Higheagle, with no middle capitalisation or space. She told me they always know when someone on the phone doesn't know them: "Hello, is Mrs Hig-Heagle home?"
