In many OO languages, it is tradition to name types with capital letters 
  (TFoo anyone?) and functions / methods with initial small then caps 
(camelCase).

Haskell actually enforces this rule (nifty functional language). Python 
and it share a lot in common.

(As an anti-example)
Erlang enforces capital letters for variable names ONLY. A little odd 
and definitely takes some getting used to.
