Title Case

English term or phrase: Title Case
Hello All,

I am doing a small research on how to handle headlines/headers when they are kept in English. Could you please let me know what you think about the following please:

In Arabic, some names or titles are kept in English (as opposed to being transcribed). If that is the case, how would these names/titles be written? i.e. would title case be used at all or is the preference in Arabic-speaking countries to capitalise only the first word?
Can you think of any examples that would prove which is the predominant method?

In Arabic, there is a vast use of calligraphy, so is this something that is maybe used to “distinguish” a title from the rest of the text? If so, could you please give some examples?

Thank you for your help :)
