You should have a look at the awk tolower() function.

In your case you want to replace field #1 with a lowercase version of it's self something like this:

Code:
/NAME/ { $1=tolower($1); printf "%s" $0 }


or try
Code:
                {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++)  {gsub (/^ *| *$/, "", $i)
                                         $i = "\"" (i == 1 ? tolower($1) : $i) "\""
                                        }
                }

If you go with the above method, remember the expressions following will now be looking for lowercase a version (ie /basedir/ instead of /BASEDIR/).
