MySQL: Can't give tables a name in Upper Camel Case (Pascal Case)

Question

I read that it is best practise to have table names in Pascal Case (ThisIsMyTableName). Therefor I would like to change my tables in MySQL. But neither phpmyadmin, nore SQL

Answer 1

Use RENAME

example:

RENAME TABLE this_is_my_table_name TO ThisIsMyTableName;
