Here is a quick and practical guide on how to capitalize the first letter of a string using JavaScript plus I’m also including a function you can reuse.
The function CapitalFirstName
is used to capitalize the first letter of the string but we go a step further by only capitalizing the first letter of the First name by checking if the name has spaces with the split()

Then finally use the toUpperCase()
function to capitalize the first letter and then slice the letter from the first string to obtain the value for the rest of the name. This is a quick handly function you can use for your next application.
