The default unique error message, found in `django.db.models.fields` class
`Field` attribute `default_error_messages`, reads as follows:
{{{
'unique': _('%(model_name)s with this %(field_label)s '
'already exists.'),
}}}
Where `field_label` is replaced with `capfirst(field.verbose_name)`. The
end result will appears something like: "Person with this Email already
exists."
This creates an uppercase word in the middle of the sentence, which is
incorrect English grammar. For this to use correct grammar the field
should not be capitalized.
