The name of the program is "Wget" (or "GNU Wget"), with a capital
letter. The name of its Unix executable is spelled with all lower-case,
as is customary. The capitalization of the name documented in the NAME
section of the man page should depend on whether "name" refers refer to
the former or the latter.
