Members List omissions

I have noticed a problem with the Members List. I looked for my own name "scotty" but was only able to find "Scotty" (with a capital) who is a different member of the forum. When I login to the site I am correctly recognised as scotty but the list of members does not include me. All the names listed begin with a capital. This is not a major problem but I can imagine it could cause confusion with messages being sent to the wrong person.
Perhaps this explains why I never get any private messages

I can find both Scotty and scotty using the member search. (though it gets the post count wrong)
As for using the A-Z along the top, that only shows names beginning with capital letters - which is why I listed the lower-case ones here
I wonder if it should be allowing people to sign up with the same username0
