Palacky fell out of the ATM or Where the proper name begins and ends from the point of view of capitalization
 Smejkalová, Kamila
Capital letters in Czech indicate a proper name. However, distinguishing a proper name from a common one can challenging, as evidenced by the number of capitalization enquiries answered by the Language Consulting Center (LCC) of the Czech Language Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences (CLI). In addition, the status of a proper name is not immutable. Th e name may go through an appellativization process (uppercase letter changes to lowercase) or proprialization process (lowercase letters become uppercase). Th is text deals with appellativization in connection with the spelling and with legal consequences of this process, as well as with other naming types that appear to be problematic for Czech users in terms of capitalization. Telephone, letter, and e-mail inquiries of the LCC, which are annotated in the electronic Database of Language Enquiries on the CLI website, are used as material.
