Macgregor Mac

If your last name begins 'mc' or 'Mac', did the rest of the name beginning with a capital letter?

For example, is or MacGregor Macgregor or varies? Cheers!

In reality varies. Most of the time (now) is seen with the first letter after Mc or Mac capitalized. And this seems to be the convention used for an extended period. But this is just a convention. If the prefix "Mc, then almost always find the following capital letter. Because the combination of letters "TM" does not allow it "fit" into one word. However, "Mac" May move easily in following letters in a word - the example given above "MacGregor" that looks good. But "Mcgregor" no. "But the convention. In the first Use the "TM" and "Mac" were actually separated from the father's name. Thus, the correct way would be Donald Mac Gregor (son of Donald Gregor) and his son SomeName Mac Donald. Once the forms of names were dropped so that now the names of the traditional family, "person" determined that the name has taken the form of name (SomeName Mac Donald) and transformed into what is today the traditional form of the name (MacDonald) and all his family and descendants from here Macdonald - though few actually "the son of Donald".
