How do I change the surname to upper & lower case instead of all caps?

I was told in G2G that surnames should be in mixed case, not all caps. I tried to edit a profile I was working on CONIBEAR-42, but it does not allow me to change the last name at birth. How do I make the correction? Should I make the correction?

It looks like the PM has the LNABs of all his profiles capitalized. He would be the one who has to change it.

Only the profile manager can change the LNAB and the PM of the profile you linked is active, so you could message him about changing the all caps name.

Anyone on the Trusted List can change the LNAB.
FICKE-122 exists as does Ficke-122- the ALL CAPS entry seems to be preventing me from creating a Fan Chart for Dierberg-6. The first sentence problem creates a hole. What steps must be taken to do away with ALL Caps FICKE-122 without jeopardizing Ficke-122

As Melanie said in her response: Anyone on the Trusted List can change the LNAB. I would suggest that you make a request to be added to the Trusted List. There is a link on the right of every profile to do this request.
