It’s true that nested styles are easier to implement but I am a bit of a GREP wonk so that’s the way I usually go with these things.

Try this expression on for size:

^u\w+(\u)?\u\w+

If it works as expected then I’ll drop back in later and explain the expression for you (I have to get my son on the bus now :))
