Initially GREP was an abbreviation, short for "Get REPresentation". I learned about the meaning of GREP abbreviation from this implementation: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/academic/computer-science/history/pdp-11/rsx/decus/rsx88b/373230/ As a command "grep" should be in lower case indeed. But OTOH, on the menu all words are in title case (except for minor words): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_case
