You cant change your name. So I guess you have to start over, if you are unhappy with your name.

You may open a support ticket with name change request, but they will decline it.

I think steam players can go to the account management on the eve website and make a login there.

They will make cosmetic changes to a name if you make a good case, such as capitalizing letters or putting a space in.

An apostrophe changes the name and is not cosmetic.

You know maybe they won't add spaces, as that would change the name and keep the auto link from finding you.

I'm talking about the difference between billybob and BillyBob.

And that's the key. If changing the name will keep the auto link from finding you they won't allow it. Capital letters don't change that.

Maybe. But is basicly the same like "no", isnt it?
If player Milchshake can rename to MilchShake, the name still sucks. Btw... met this guy online. I bet he got no clue how much he will hate that name in time.
