How do you get ms word to automatically capitalize words?

So I'm writing a story and I have weird names and ms word doesn't automatically capitalize them. Soo im really lazy and I dont want to push shift and then a letter to capitalize. So is there a place where word allows you to type in all the words you want the first letter to always be capitalized? Get what I'm saying? Any help is great!How do you get ms word to automatically capitalize words?
1. First, type in the word uncapitalized.

2. Highlight the word and right click.

3. Select "AutoCorrect"

4. Select "Auto Correction Options".

5. See the list with the "Replace With:" words? Add the word you want UNcapitalized to the "Replace" line. Then add the word CAPITALIZED to the "With" line. Make sure the option is Plain Text.

6. Press the "Add" button. Repeat the steps for every word you want. Press Ok.

7. Test it out. Write the word in word uncapitalized and it should "autocorrect" and become magically capitalized.
