I've updated my Health Bars datapack for the latest Minecraft versions, with exciting new customization options! You can now change the Color of every Component individually (even the Brackets or the Heart), change the Style or change the Name's Thickness.

So I'm trying to rework my Health Bars Datapack to add new features and update to newer versions. I need a method to grab the entity type of a mob.
I managed to get it to store the correct name, however I would like to make the first letter a capital letter. Storing the first letter and checking for the right one is not a problem but I don't know how I can actually merge two strings into one if that even is possible.
Is there a better way to get the mob type (other than checking for every single mob in the game (which I really don't want to do) or to merge two strings into one?
Currently I'm getting the mob type by spawning in a text display and using the "selector" of the nearest mob (which is always the one spawning it).
