Try these queries.

1) For the "John & mary" issue:

UPDATE contacts SET fname = concat(mid(fname, 1, locate('&', fname) + 1), UPPER(mid(fname,locate('&', fname) + 2,1)), mid(fname, locate('&', fname) + 3))
WHERE fname LIKE "%&%"

2) For the middle initial issue:


UPDATE contacts SET fname = concat(mid(fname , 1, locate(' ', fname ) ), UPPER(mid(fname ,locate(' ', fname ) + 1,1)), mid(fname , locate(' ', fname ) + 2))
WHERE fname LIKE "% %"
