2 Why emsenn is Lowercase
2.1 "msenn"
When I was 12 I joined a server where everyone's name was their first initial and the first four letters of their last name. So my username was "msenn."
2.2 "emsenn"
After a while we migrated systems and the rule was relaxed, and many original members changed their names to be more phonetic - I added an e to the start of mine, to become "emsenn."
Because my name originated as a username, I always write it in lowercase: a nod to my "heritage."
(And yes, everyone calls me emsenn, even in real life.)
