Saikrishna, I recommend that you follow the capitalization style of the adjacent Way in OSM.
Blindly using init cap functions will mangle things like McGill Park Ave, McFarlin Lane, ....... Which are correctly capitalized in OSM. You could try to do something like http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Culturally_aware_initcap, but following the style of existing data in OSM is better. C.
