Maybe you are confused between unit names and file names. In the Ada
world, we care about units (the content), not so much about files (the
container).

In the case of Gnat, it has precise rules for matching unit names with
file names, and it requires all *file* names to be lowercase. This is
because case is not significant in Ada; there must be some convention to
make sure that BLAH Blah and bLaH all fetch the same file - here blah.ads.

In short: name your units as you please, and let the environment choose
the appropriate file name for you.
