Hello, Could the field for first name/last name for student name entry have forced capitalisation? Everyone's names should be capitalised and there is a lot of manual work correcting this. Thank you

For example, students typing "john smith" will force change it to "John Smith"

  Hi Yuki,

  Thank you for your input to the ideas forum. It's unlikely that we would implement such a change, but we're happy to leave your suggestion here to see how the community feels.

  Cheers,
  Rod.

  Capitalise the first letter I mean.

  Instead of "john smith" the form will automatically change it to "John Smith"

  I hope it makes sense?

  Capitals at the start of a students name may not always be applicable. Eg. AB de Villiers 🏏

  Grammatically correct and professional looking for official certificates (and also less manual work) if forced uppercase for both first and last names regardless.
