i prefer the all lowercase aesthetic too, but for dragon names, i usually do capital with lowercase only ironically, since i feel it establishes them as individual characters more. and don't forget the username change, that'll be costly too-you can't change your capitalization alone for some reason, you need to change the spelling too, which means you'll need two name changes and at least 6 months and 500g just to remove the capitals!

but they didn't say anything about changing their username, and there's no 6-month cooldown for changing those anyway? [emoji=banescale confused size=2]

just in case they wanted the user to match their aesthetic too, you know? i never changed my username here so i just assumed that the same fees and wait time that applied to flight change applied to users too, guess not tho!

I find it very hard to read uncapitalized names as Names instead of just words, honestly.

i prefer lowercase for everything BUT dragons' names, i just don't like the look of a lowercase name, doesn't look official to me i guess? I also dislike uppercase letters in the middle of a name/dual words names

this is pretty much how i feel, i gotta make sure all my names have the 1st letter capitalized or it drives me a bit nutty. i respect the aesthetic though! i use lowercase names for my (currently unfinished) dragons explaining the clan lore, since their names Are technically just words & not actual names.

Uncapitalized names have a bit of a messy, unfinished look to it. I like the no caps aesthetic on some specific things (my un, for example!) but yeah on dragons it's a no from me

on one hand, i prefer capitalized names personally, but that's what fits for me. i think uncapitalized names are a nice aesthetic if that's the route you want to take. if you're going to do that, though, you'll need all of the names uncapitalized imo, as otherwise it looks like an error rather than a deliberate decision. so that's my own two cents.

Capital names, except in the case for my
a e s t h e t i c tab where the names are all lower case on purpose.

I don't like capitalization in general, but for my dragons I keep them having normally capitalized names
it works because a) they ARE names, and b) whenever I buy a pre-named dragon I don't have to change them every single time

i had the same dilemma a while ago! what i did was buy the scrolls for a few dragons and test lowercase names on them. if you like how it looks, do your whole lair, but if not, you can just change them back! i obviously ended up keeping the names like that.
my lore is also in lowercase because it looks nicer to me! i can and do write with proper grammar, but it's a stylistic thing. do what you want. it's your lair and they're your dragons :)
