Why does the Uppercase Letters of my file name change to Lowercase

I have a file name "Northern California" that is shared to various people. It was automatically changed to "northern california" Why did the capital "N" and capital "C" change to lower case?

My problem is that when I signed the report, it changes the file name to lower case when DB syncs to the server. All the guys sharing the files will get the lower case file name but my file name stays on the upper case.

 

Apparently, DB has to be paused before signing the report so that when it syncs again it won't change it to lower case. When I did that, DB did not change the upper case to lower case anymore.
