It’s hard enough to tell someone which is best, telling them the particular capitalization is impossible without giving them a direct link.

In addition, preventing duplicate names is fairly hard if you support unicode. Characters like the zero width space, Mongolian vowel separator and many others make it algorithmically different but visually they are the same.

That's not really n issue. You can always compared normalized versions of the name.
