Dominic,
Would you follow the rules of sentence capitalisation
Interestingly that very same point came up for the design firm I worked for, perhaps 35 years ago. A client at the time had the last name "de Bary". We had to design a brochure for his company of the same name. There were several instances where sentences started with his name. We discussed it at length, and in the end decided to preserve the integrity of the name, rather than sentence structure convention.
