Any text that starts with a capital letter, and contains another capital 
letter within it is called "CamelCase", and is treated as an automatic 
"WikiLink" reference to a tiddler (even if that tiddler doesn't exist yet).

You can disable this handling in several ways:

1) For single occurrences, just precede the text with "~", as in "~MacInnes"
2) Disable automatic WikiLinks in an entire tiddler, by putting "\define 
tv-wikilinks() no" at the start of the tiddler 
(see https://tiddlywiki.com/#tv-wikilinks%20Variable)
3) Disable automatic WikiLinks in the whole file, by clearing the "Enable 
automatic CamelCase linking" checkbox in $:/ControlPanel, Settings tab or 
by directly setting the text content of 
$:/config/WikiParserRules/Inline/wikilink to "disable".

enjoy,
