Do you use capitals for Good Morning?

No. Salutations (hello, good morning, welcome, dear [Name]) are not capitalized unless some other rule (like the beginning of a sentence) requires their capitalization. For example: CORRECT: Good morning, Susan. CORRECT: I said good morning to John. CORRECT: Susan said, "Good morning, John." (The use of quotations makes this hello the beginning of a sentence spoken by Susan. Since a sentence always begins with a capital letter, hello is capitalized.) CORRECT: Susan said, "Tell John good morning for me." INCORRECT: I said Hello to John. INCORRECT: Good Morning, Susan. The reason these words tend to be incorrectly capitalized is their frequent use at the beginning of sentences. In reality, the only reason for their capitalization is to begin a sentence or a greeting in a letter. They should never be capitalized for emphasis or in the middle of a sentence out of habit. * The greeting in an email or letter counts as the beginning of a sentence. The first letter of the first word of a salutation would be capitalized: Good morning Susan, How are you today? ...
