Capitalize Each Word
Capitalize Each Word raises the first letter after each word boundary while retaining the rest of the original casing.
Example: capitalize each word
hello WORLD
Hello WORLD
How to use this tool
- Enter the text while keeping any existing capitals you want to preserve.
- Run Capitalize Each Word.
- Check compounds, apostrophes, and unchanged uppercase letters.
How the result is made
The regular expression looks for a Unicode letter at the start of input or after a non-letter-and-number character, then uppercases that letter. “hello WORLD” becomes “Hello WORLD”. Unlike Title Case, it does not lowercase the rest of a word first. It also does not choose editorial minor-word exceptions.
When to use it
Use it when a list contains mixed-case names or abbreviations that should keep their interior capitals. For a uniform heading, Title Case may be preferable because it resets casing before capitalizing. For ordinary prose, Sentence Case limits capitalization to detected sentence starts.
Details to check
Apostrophes, hyphens, spaces, and punctuation can create boundaries, so a word after those characters may gain a capital. The tool does not verify names or grammar. Review compound terms and contractions before using the result as a final title.
