How to First Letter Capital & Rest All Small for Any Name in Excel Using Python Automation

In Excel, names are often written in various formats, but sometimes it’s necessary to standardize them. One common standard is to capitalize only the first letter of each name and make the rest lowercase. This ensures consistency and readability in datasets.

Python provides tools like the openpyxl library to automate Excel tasks. With Python, you can write a script that reads a list of names from an Excel file, converts them to the desired format, and saves the modified names back to the Excel file. This automation process can save time and reduce errors when working with large datasets.

In this tutorial, we’ll use Python to automate the task of capitalizing the first letter of each name and making the rest lowercase in an Excel file. We’ll use the openpyxl library to read the names from the Excel file, modify them, and save the modified names back to the Excel file.

By the end of this tutorial, you’ll have a Python script that can easily handle this task, making it easier to maintain consistency in your Excel datasets.
