I want to know that Filename1, provided by the user is the same as stored in DB (Filename2).

I was about to use

string.Equals(Filename1, Filename2, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)

but then I doubted whether I should use StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase.

Obviously, I need to do this the same way OS does, or use appropriate API.

In some cultures, AFAIK, characters (e.g. vocals) may change if the next one is Capitalized.

As I primarily target English-speaking market, I'd like my software to work well throughout the world.
