where a~[a-z] and A~[A-Z], the case alternates and the first letter is always lower-case.

Thanks,

    The regex that @tanascius gave is fine, and based on that, a shorter one could be:

    ([a-z][A-Z])*[a-z]?
    

    A major difference is that this one will match the empty string. I wasn’t sure from the examples if that was allowed.
