You can use mixed case if you want --- you just have to be absolutely
consistent about whether you double-quote the names or not.

        FooBar  is the same as        foobar
        FooBar  is NOT the same as    "FooBar"

You can write 'em with quotes if you want, or without if you want,
but you have to do it the same way all the time.
