Describe the bug
Take the case of the default collection, 'My Collection'. Now if the user makes an attempt to create yet another collection under the same name but following different letter casing, it just gets created.
Applicable while editing collections as well.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Hop on to the collections tab.
Click on New
Give the name as my collection (Assuming the user has a default collection under the name My Collection)
It gets created

Expected behavior
The user is warned such that it is a duplicate collection.

Additional context
