I don't think you can style the title, but you can emulate its functionality by using a data attribute with a CSS :after pseudo-element on hover:

a {
  position: relative;
}

a:hover:after {
  content: attr(data-title);
  position: absolute;
  font: 10px verdana;
  top: -110%;
  left: 0;
  background: #ace;
  color: black;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  border: 1px solid gray;
  border-radius: 20%;
  padding: 3px;
}
