toProperCase

A simple recursive function to produce proper case outputs. This method simply takes input like "REAL MADRID" and returns "Real Madrid".

public static String toProperCase(String name) { 
    if (name.length() == 0) { 
        return ""; 
    } 
    if (name.contains(" ")) {//multi worded input
        String[] names = name.split(" "); 
        name = ""; 
        for(int i=0; i<names.length;i++){ 
            name = name + toProperCase(names[i]) + " ";//adds blank between each word 
        } 
        return name.substring(0,name.length()-1);//deleted blank in the end 
    } else { 
        return name.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + name.substring(1).toLowerCase(Locale.ENGLISH); 
    } 
}
