I say turn off the warning (as mentioned previously) AND you own your family tree(s) and those people are in your genealogy software (you own Legacy, it doesn't own you). If and when you want to share online or elsewhere and feel the need, you could switch over to Initial Cap for surname (or keep with All Cap). This is not one of the errors/problems like not using the correct date format so that internationally we all know what we are talking about - you do you!

    You can turn off that warning for all by going to Tools > Potential
    Problems.

    Click on the Standardization tab and remove the check in the "Surname
    Entered in all uppercase" box
