You could also use something like the following. It would, compared to
your code, also capitalize the very first word in the quotation marks
(your Hello, if it were hello).

,x/label="[^"]+"/ .-#0+#7,.+#0-#1 y/ / .-#0,.-#0+#1 | tr a-z A-Z

It finds the label="stuff", then limits to stuff, then breaks into
words, then capitalizes the first letter of each word.
