jQuery - how to set title attribute in a particular format

I have this jQuery code as part of a loop to generate divs and set properties for each div.

var names = $('<div/>', {
         id: load1array[j],
    'class': 'bold',
     html: load1array[j]
        });

I want to add a title attribute for each div, but I forgot the syntax. I have tried the codes below but they don't appear to be the right syntax. 

var names = $('<div/>', {
         id: load1array[j],
    'class': 'bold',

//attr:('title','text here'),        
//title:'text here' ,    
//'title':'text here' ,  

        html: load1array[j]
        })//.attr( "title", "text here" );

TIA

Edit:

I also saw the answer here Creating a div element in jQuery, which shows that the code that includes the title attribute

jQuery('<div/>', {
    id: 'foo',
    href: 'http://google.com',
    title: 'Become a Googler',
    rel: 'external',
    text: 'Go to Google!'
}).appendTo('#mySelector');

But it did not work as I have tried, following the answer's included links, perhaps the title attribute does not work with <div> tags, but rather <a> tags.

Try this:

var names = $('<div/>', {
     id: load1array[j],
'class': 'bold',
 html: load1array[j]
    });

names.attr("title", "text here");
