How to use Make List Items Proper Case
- 1. Paste your list. Put one item per line into the input pane, such as item descriptions or names typed entirely in lowercase.
- 2. Check the capitalization. Every word in each item is capitalized, unlike title case, which skips small connecting words. There are no settings; the whole list capitalizes uniformly in one pass.
- 3. Copy the proper-cased list. Copy the result, with every word capitalized, into a spreadsheet, form, or document that expects consistent word-by-word capitalization.
When to use Make List Items Proper Case
Make List Items Proper Case capitalizes every single word in a list, including small connecting words that title case would normally leave lowercase. Use Make List Items Proper Case when a spreadsheet column or form field needs every word capitalized, not just the major ones.
- Formatting category names for a spreadsheet. You typed product categories quickly in lowercase and the spreadsheet needs every word capitalized for consistency with existing columns. Convert the category list at once.
- Cleaning up address lines from a form. A form export has street names and city names in all lowercase. Capitalize every word in the list before importing it into your address database.
- Standardizing job titles in an HR list. An HR spreadsheet lists job titles typed inconsistently, some lowercase, some mixed. Run the list through the converter so every word capitalizes the same way.
- Preparing labels for printed name badges. You have a list of department names typed in lowercase that need to print correctly on badges. Proper-case the list before sending it to the badge printer.

About the Make List Items Proper Case tool
Make List Items Proper Case runs as plain JavaScript in your browser tab, with no server behind it. Change case to proper case. Whatever you put in stays on your device from start to finish.
The tool is part of EditSafely's List Tools section, 114 single-purpose utilities built around the same idea: open the page, get the result, keep your data to yourself.
There is nothing to configure. Provide the input and the result appears on its own. A worked example further down the page shows exactly what the tool produces for a real input.
That local-first design has practical benefits beyond privacy. The tool keeps working on a flaky connection once the page has loaded, results are instant because nothing round-trips to a server, and it is safe to use with confidential material.
