As I recall from my days long ago as an office worker, both McWhatever and MacWhatever are supposed to be alphabetized as MacWhatever in file cabinets, because it simplifies finding files later when you don't necessarily remember whether the name you're looking for started with "Mac" or "Mc".

Having said that, computers don't follow that rule, so lists of names alphabetized by computer will put "Mac" names before "Mc", because the second letter "a" in the former comes before the second letter "c" in the other.
