I really haven't a clue why not use hyphens. I know that I've been using the ! format for so long that to use hyphens would feel awkward and be confusing. I'm sure there are people who DO use hyphens, but I think more people use !.

Though I think that SillyexclamationpointMuffin is the *perfect* name for a cat. Or, since I don't have a cat, you. I'll beg somebody to make you an icon and everything. You can change your name, it'll pay for your kid's tuition somewhere!
