Sophie - if we assume that your GUI has (at least) a popup menu and an axes (and that the GUI has been created in GUIDE), then I would use the popup menu callback to update the axes title whenever the user selects a new menu item. For example,

function popupmenu1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

itemStrings = get(hObject,'String');
selectedItem = get(hObject,'Value');
title(handles.axes1,itemStrings{selectedItem});

The above assumes that your popup menu is tagged/named popupmenu1 and your axes is named axes1. Try the above and see what happens!
