Suggestions for correcting people's names, so they are capitalized correctly

Users of our site often print a lot of garbage for information about the name and address. e.g. all CAPS, all lower, etc.

It looks a lot better if we fix them for them, but someone can suggest a good way to do it. A simple approach is only to use each word in its own name, but this does not work when working with some names. Here are some examples ...

  • bob mcdonald
  • sarah o'connor
  • MR PETE SMITH

and this is what I would like to convert to

  • Bob mcdonald
  • Sarah O'Connor
  • Mr. Pete Smith

I use PHP if this helps.
