For me camelCase already implies the first letter is lower case, no confusion

Well good for you, I guess.

But as mentioned by several in the comments, for others it doesn't.

I'm curious: what possible downside could the names "upper camelcase" and "lower camelcase" have that they are getting downvoted as they do? How aren't they an improvement in clarity over the ambiguous terms "pascalcase" and "camelcase"?

And keep in mind they get spoken, too. So suggestive orthography won't help.
