Initcap changes the first (initial) letter of a word (string) or series of words into uppercase
The general format for this function is:
SQL> --INITCAP(string)

SQL> SELECT INITCAP("capitals") FROM dual;
INITCAP(
--------
Capitals

Use INITCAP() with table column
INITCAP(x) converts the initial letter of each word in x to uppercase.
The following example selects the id and first_name columns, and uses INITCAP() to convert the first letter of each word in first_name to uppercase
