Titanium plate properties are closer to bone hence weakening of the bone is minimal. You can use any plate- there is no harm in it as long as it is good quality

You can go for titanium plate or nail as they are have elastic modulus closer to that of bone, titanium is inert and advanced metal than steel.
Also, there are less chances of implant associated inflammation.
