			;Q- I like my last name, but I wish I could change the capitalization.
	<br>
		⚫	A: When creating or changing a name, make sure to type it EXACTLY as you wish it to appear. The system is somewhat flexible with regard to mixed capitalization, so that if for example you wished to change "Davinci" to "daVinci", you may do so. Registered names consider all capitalized forms of the name to be the same, so such a change would not require you to re-register, and a registration of "daVinci" prohibits anyone else from choosing "Davinci".

	It depends on whether you registered the surname at the in-town office or not. If you didn't, then theoretically anyone can take it for themselves, even register it for themselves, whether you want them to or not.
