Difference between DOMDocument (with capitals) and DomDocument?

I just noticed that in my code I have both something like:

$domdoc = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');

and

$domdoc = new DomDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');

... apparently since I've copypasted from different examples.

However, if I remember correctly, PHP is case-sensitive, so DOMDocument should not be the same as DomDocument?! Although, when I run the code with both instances in PHP 5.5.9, it seems to work - no complaints are raised...

So, can anyone explain whether DOMDocument is alias of DomDocument (or vice versa) - or are these similar, but different classes?

DomDocument is a powerful library of PHP-5 to create XML. DOMDocument Represents an entire HTML or XML document; serves as the root of the document tree.

PHP is case insensitive for the class naming.
