the output for that code is (^AU:sA-Z)ane smith, why is that? thanks

if($test=~s/AU:\s\b(\w+)\s\b(\w+)|AU:\s\b(w+)/AU: \u$1 \u$2/g) I tried this code to capital the first letter of each word the code is only valid with AU: Jane Smith but when in a file has a name of 'mr. carlos smith' it does not capitalize the each word. Is there any particular regex that i can use without using the Use Lingua::EN::NameCase.
