This has become super confusing to follow, possibly because you have the 
wrong expectation of compojure?

Compojure is not specificy how your routes will look, it is responding to 
whatever URLs you put in place.

In the case of:

(GET "/:profile-page" [profile-page] ...)

:profile-page in the route string, becomes profile-page the variable.

So if you make the link: "http://myapp.com/some user" then profile-page 
will be "some user".

If you make the link: "http://myapp.com/SomeUser"; then profile-page will be 
"SomeUser".  The route is simply capturing whatever is sent, not specifying 
or creating anything.  Once you have profile-page you can then modify it as 
you see fit.

When you create the links in your app's template you will specify what URL 
is called, that is when you decide how to display the user's profile name 
in the URL.  

I recommend not having a space, take a look at google+ where my username is 
"Jarrod Swart" but my profile url is: plus.google.com/+JarrodSwart

Hopefully this helps, or perhaps I misread the thread.
