Does that capitalization, space, and ordering rule apply not just for
the specific example of 'Dela Cruz' but in all cases, for example,
Delos Santos not De los Santos
Delas Alas not De las Alas
Del Pilar not del Pilar
De Vera not de Vera or DeVera or Devera
Dos Santos not dos Santos
Da Vinci not da Vinci
La Madrid
Las Palmas
or are there any exceptions?
Is this Philippine standard documented anywhere?
