It's all in entity_default.txt, you can capitalize most of the noble titles in there yourself. Or check out http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=2036 [^] , a little fix I whipped up so the capitalization differences wouldn't drive me dwarfy.

Since positions are different from professions, this may well be intentional.
Positions seem to be all lowercase, actual professions are capitalized.

'broker' is a position; 'Trader' is a profession.
