Types name should begin with an Upper character

Rule ND2006 Naming Conventions

Warns about types whose names don't start with an Upper character. .NET commonly uses Pascal Casing Style (first letter of the identifier and of each concatenated word capitalized, e.g. BackColor).

How to fix

Pascal Case the names of matched types.
