It is as common as it is wrong. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAS_Syndrome

A contraction like LCDisplay, like my suggested lcdisplay for the path
name, is IMO not suitable for use in normal written language. Use it at
most for path names where we contract words into one or would write
lc-display or lc_display.

Still wrong language.
"LCD" and "LC display" are correct.
