This one works for me.

UPDATE `suburbs` 
SET title2 = CONCAT_WS(' ',
CONCAT(UPPER(LEFT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',1),1)), LOWER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',1),2))),
CONCAT(UPPER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',2),LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',1)) + 2, 1)), LOWER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',2),3 + LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',1))))),
CONCAT(UPPER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',3),LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',2)) + 2, 1)), LOWER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',3),3 + LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',2))))),
CONCAT(UPPER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',4),LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',3)) + 2, 1)), LOWER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',4),3 + LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',3))))),
CONCAT(UPPER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',5),LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',4)) + 2, 1)), LOWER(MID(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',5),3 + LENGTH(SUBSTRING_INDEX(title, ' ',4))))),
