Indian Name Case Converter

Indian government forms (Aadhaar, PAN, passport, voter ID, bank KYC) typically require names in UPPERCASE. This is a hard requirement — lowercase or mixed-case names get rejected. A name case converter that produces correct UPPERCASE output is a small but real workflow improvement for anyone filling out Indian government forms regularly.

Indian naming conventions are more varied than Western ones. South Indian names often use patronymics (the father's name as a middle name, no inherited surname). North Indian names often have multi-word surnames (Kapur, Mehra, Gupta). Many Indians use initials (R. K. Narayan, Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam). Generic case converters handle these poorly — they may strip the periods from initials, or capitalize only the first letter of a multi-word surname.

The right case converter for Indian names preserves the structure: initials stay as initials (R. K. stays as R. K. in Title Case, becomes R. K. in UPPERCASE), patronymics are handled correctly (the patronymic is treated as a regular word), and multi-word surnames are formatted as a unit. This tool will handle these conventions correctly, in both UPPERCASE for forms and Title Case for general use.
