  StudlyCaps - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
StudlyCaps (or perhaps StUdLyCaPs, also known as StickyCaps) is a variation of CamelCase in which the individual letters in a word (or words) are capitalized and not capitalized, either at random or in some pattern.
Unlike the use of all lowercase letters, which suggests laziness or efficiency as a motivation, StudlyCaps requires additional effort to type, either holding and releasing the Shift key with one hand while hunting-and-pecking, or alternately pressing one Shift key or the other while touch typing.
StudlyCaps are used in the Mystery Science Theater 3000 fandom as a text representation of Torgo's speech (from the 4th season movie Manos: The Hands of Fate).

A god example of studlyCap's problems is if you code Javascript/HTML there is a lot of cases where the implementation of some functionality is case insensitive, but you run into trouble in some othe browser where the case makes a difference.

Until now, a PHP function name has been of the form my_php_function(), but now there has been talk of migrating towards the style referred to as “studlyCaps” – where myPhpFunction() would be the new standard.
The PEAR library at large follows the studlyCaps style, and it is the largest single body of PHP OO code available.

Again the aim of this document is not to suggest a specific decision, but to compile all arguments in order to prevent people from bringing up the same arguments over and over again.
1) underscores are more readable than studlyCaps Underscores are more readable as the name of this file illustrates: toStudlyCapOrNotToStudlyCap vs. to_studly_cap_or_not_to_studly_cap StudlyCaps where only invented as a kludge for programming languages unable to handle underscores in function/method names.
However the fact remains that PHP is case insensitive which would mean that people can use al sorts of weird and unreadable ways of spelling methods, whereas underscores have more clarity independent of the case used.

Most wiki URLs contain names are just squished together words using StudlyCaps, BumpyCaps, CamelCase, what have you.
So it'd be nice if the URL didn't look like it was creating new concepts all the time.
