As it should

# man mount

/shortname=

      shortname=[lower|win95|winnt|mixed]

             Defines the behaviour for creation and display of filenames
             which fit into 8.3 characters. If a long name for a file 
exists,
             it will always be preferred display. There are four modes:

             lower  Force the short name to lower case upon display; 
store a
                    long name when the short name is not all upper case.

             win95  Force the short name to upper case upon display; 
store a
                    long name when the short name is not all upper case.

             winnt  Display the shortname as is; store a long name when the
                    short name is not all lower case or all upper case.

             mixed  Display the short name as is; store a long name 
when the
                    short name is not all upper case.

      The default is "lower".


Try using mixed, i.e.

/dev/sde1  /media/sde1  vfat  defaults,shortname=mixed  0 0
