For Existing Values

Select the books: tap 'E' (bulk metadata edit mode):Tick the box (near the bottom)'Update Title Sort': OK

spend some time looking this form over, there is a lot of things you can do using this. Too many to even try and document all the possibilities. And for those that can't be done on the 'Basic' tab, there is the Search and Replace tab. Caution:you can make a huge mess...fast. Do a Library backup, just in case
