That's not the point.

No, "DJ" is not correct according to English rules.  This was
stated previously.  Did you even read the thread?

As such, he has no right to hold others accountable to it
when they're unaware his name doesn't follow English rules.
That's the point.  That's what he was attempting to do.
That's wrong.  He blamed me for the faults with his name.

The point was that if he doesn't want people to think his name
is abbreviated first and second initial, then he shouldn't
capitalize both.  That's not hard to understand.  This was
also already stated previously.  Did you even read the thread?

If you read the thread, please stop responding as if you hadn't.
