This iconic piece of equipment is arguably a greater companion to the Doctor than even his longest-running companions. Moreover, The TARDIS is a more consistent character than the Doctor himself, who has the ability to alter and regenerate his body 12 (now 13) times instead of dying.

The uppercase "TARDIS" convention was popularised by the Target novelisations of the 1970s. However, the use of " Tardis" is equally correct (it was used in the Dr. Who[ sic] films) and is consistent with current British press style, in which acronyms (initials that form pronounceable words) are spelled with only the first letters capitalised (for example, Bafta), while unpronounceable initials ( initialisms) are capitalised in their entirety (for example, BBC). Many examples of the form Tardis are found in media and, occasionally, licensed publications (in the 2005 series episode " World War Three", the caller ID of the TARDIS is displayed on Rose Tyler's mobile phone as "Tardis calling"—this capitalisation of only the initial letter being the default setting for Nokia mobile phones). The OED has the word "Tardis" capitalised as such with a first appearance from the Times in 1969. [7]
