Sorry - CATALOGUED data sets do not support lower case. Yes, you can create funky data set names on your VTOCs, but there may be other issues
you'll have to deal with - vendor products, IBM components, etc.

At an old shop without a security package, we used to name certain datasets with lowercase and/or embedded blanks in order to make it difficult for the average programmer to delete them. (Security via obscurity.)

SPF 3.4 did okay with lower case, but stopped at the first blank. That may be fixed, by now.
