With a custom title:

String title = (String) nodeService.getProperty(myNodeRef, QName.createQName("http://www.mycompany.com/model/customModel/1.0", "title");

Change to your namespace and the name of your custom title.

And what about if is in this situation:

<namespace uri="http://xxx/model/1.0" prefix="xxx" />‍

<type name="xxx:customType">
   <title>My Title</title>‍‍

How do I fetch the title?

Well that title-element is just a way to name your type (like naming a java class or something). To find that out you will have to use the DictionaryService.getType and on the returned TypeDefinition do a getTitle() I suppose…
