NOTES:
If the caller’s name you received from the telephone service provider is all in capital letters, the
first letter of every word remains a capital letter, while other letters become lowercase. However,
the next letter after the prefix “Mac”, “Mc”, “D’”, “C’” or “O’”, is kept as a capital letter. For
example, the “D” in “MacDonald” is kept as a capital letter. Another exception is that “VAN DER”
will be changed to “Van der”.
If the telephone number from the caller ID information has already been saved in the directory
under a different name, the new name will overwrite the old one.
