Sorry, my description for function and procedure names was upside down. It
meant to write procedure names
should be verbs and lowercase or camelCase and function names should be nouns
and start with a capital
letter.

This is a matter of naming conventions.
In Modula-2, there has been a silent consensus on *some* naming convention
issues, but there is no
standard naming convention. The consensus is generally that variables, field
names and parameters
should either be all-lowercase or at least start with a lowercase character,
i.e. camelCase. There is
also generally consensus that function names should be verbs and lowercase or
camelCase and procedure
names should be nouns and start with a capital letter. For constants there is
no consensus, in some
naming conventions they start with a lowercase letter in others with a capital
letter. And even where
there is consensus, it is not always followed consequently.
