Thx any way

A.m and p.m are taken from latin language
A.m stands for
(Ante merideim.)
&
P.m stands for
(Post meriediem)

If you dont mind i have a question

Do you know about full stop in abbreviation is it necessary
..And what about capitalization

No I'm not,

I would be happy if I read an article from your words

Your short question has a quite long answer

but in general

You don't have to use full stops or periods, especially if it's of the type that you can pronounce as a word like: NATO or LASER

In this case it's better not to put periods, but you can put also

And if it can be read only as separate letters then you have the option to put or not

In general the case of putting periods is decreasing

Regarding Capitalization, it should be always written in caps, especially if it's formed out of initial words' letters (initialism), like: USA

In some cases you can use a mixture of the two types but it's not so common, like if you have an abbreviation and you want to add a word to it as an abbreviation also, like if you want to abbreviate Messenger RNA (Ribonucleic Acid), we write it mRNA

This is the answer in brief
