Translating titles makes sense. After all, an English audience will have a better idea what a film is about when it's named Seven Samurai rather than Shichinin no Samurai. But that doesn't mean you can't change the title around if it's already in English (or whatever the language of the market). There are multiple reasons for doing this: maybe it's a sequel and the original never came out, it uses an idiom or cultural reference that won't be understood overseas, a Pun-Based Title that does not translate into other languages, somebody else already owns a trademark on that name in your country, the original title doesn't make much sense in the country it's being released in, or maybe your marketing department has just decided that having lots of different names for the same thing is better. And sometimes a famous actor from that market is in the movie, and the makers want that to be highlighted. Most of this is Executive Meddling from the assumption that Viewers Are Morons, and it causes no end of confusion when fans from different countries try to discuss the same thing. Compare Homogenous Multinational Ad Campaign and American Kirby Is Hardcore. Contrast with Censored Title, where a work has its title changed due to obscenity reasons, not marketing or legal reasons. Dub Name Change is this trope for in-universe terminology and character names. If the different names are instead given by different factions In-Universe because the real name is unknown/unpronounceable/in a different language to them, that is a case of Reporting Names. If a title is in a foreign language, the translated title may be accurate, or may be a Completely Different Title. See Dolled-Up Installment and Translation Matchmaking, when the new title makes one installment "part of" another popular work. Compare Publisher-Chosen Title. |

The Six Million Dollar Man: Why wasn't the Distaff Counterpart named The Six Million Dollar Woman? To start with, it was thought that having done all the R&D on Steve Austin, a second bionic agent wouldn't cost as much. But saying she was cheaper might anger women's groups. At the same time, (and with impressive double-think) they thought "The Six Million Dollar Woman" sounded like a really expensive hooker. So, Jaime Summers was The Bionic Woman. The Bionic Woman was broadcasted as simply Sommers in Korean while The Six Million Dollar Man retained its original title. In Israel, the show was named The Man Worth Millions to avoid memories of the Holocaust, as six million is the most commonly used estimate for the numbers of Jews who died during it. |

His Dark Materials: Northern Lights was renamed The Golden Compass in America due to the alethiometer looking like a compass. Scholastic believed "Northern Lights" would be the name of the trilogy and used "Golden Compass" as a Working Title. By the time Philip Pullman got wind of it and things were straightened out, it was too late. Pullman really liked The Golden Compass as a title, although it was a mistake, and patterned the other titles after it. | |

When the anime adaptation of UFO Princess Valkyrie was released in English, ADV Films retitled it UFO Ultramaiden Valkyrie, the reason for that is because at the time, ADV had licensed quite a few series that had "Princess" in the title and stores were asking them not to license anymore series with "Princess" in the title because the weren't selling very well, this prompted ADV the alter the series' name. | |

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone became Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in America. It was initially marketed as a children's book, and some of the higher-ups believed that American kids wouldn't be familiar with the real-life legend of the Philosopher's Stone, and a more magical-sounding name would be more inviting. Her American publisher initially proposed Harry Potter and the School of Magic, but Rowling didn't like it and suggested "Sorcerer's Stone" as a compromise. Interestingly, in France the novel was released under a similar title to the "School of Magic" alternative (Harry Potter à l'école des sorciers — Harry Potter at Wizards' School) for the exact opposite reason: the story of Nicolas Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone is well known enough in France that the translators were afraid that the English title would be too much of a spoiler. | |

For Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Rowling herself suggested that translations could be based on the phrase "Relics of Death", as many languages didn't have an appropriate equivalent for "Hallows". Apparently that wasn't enough, since reportedly she had to tell the different translators what the phrase referred to before the book was out so that they could tell their audiences what the translated title would be. | |

This happens a lot to the Digimon franchise. Digimon Adventure, Digimon Adventure 02, Digimon Tamers and Digimon Frontier were merged together under the banner title of Digimon: Digital Monsters in numerous countries outside of Japan, respectively becoming seasons 1, 2, 3, and 4 of said banner show. Outside of Japan (or at least in Singapore, the USA, the UK, Latin America and Germany), Digimon Savers is known as Digimon Data Squad. Digimon Xros Wars is called Digimon Fusion in the U.S. dub, and any dubs based on it (such as the Latin American one). The same series is known as Digimon Fusion Battles in the Disney XD Malaysia airing (which utilizes an alternate English dub, as shown in this trailer) and in the Italian one. Coincidentally, "Digimon Fusion Battles" used to be the Working Title for the U.S. dub prior to removing "battles" in the title. |

A certain anti-marijuana film became infamous under the title Reefer Madness, but its original title was Tell Your Children. It was originally made by a church group, but was purchased by exploitation filmmaker Dwain Esper, who added many salacious shots and released it under different market-based names within America: Tell Your Children in the South. Doped Youth west of Denver. Reefer Madness in New England. The Burning Question in central Appalachia. In some other markets, it was Dope Addict or Love Madness. After its initial run, it was shown nationwide under all of these titles until Reefer Madness became standard. |

The American version of Nicktoons: Attack of the Toybots managed to slip the "Legend of Aang" subtitle through. Then again, the game's developers (Blue Tongue; you may know them for de Blob nowadays) are based in Australia, and this is the same Licensed Game series that insists that Invader Zim always be capitalized as "INVADER ZIM" for no apparent reason. | |

The Great British Bake Off is renamed The Great British Baking Show when aired in the U.S. and Canada, because of trademark issues with Pillsbury's Pillsbury Bake-Off competition (which formerly aired as a television special). ABC's U.S. version has followed its lead and called itself The Great American Baking Show (though CBS's first U.S. version was titled The American Baking Competition instead), the same with CBC and The Great Canadian Baking Show. | |

In the UK, the comedy Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle was renamed Harold and Kumar Get the Munchies, as Brits would be unlikely to know of the association White Castle has to an American audience. Interestingly, as White Castle does not operate nationwide, there are many Americans that have never heard of the fast food chain White Castle, either. | |

James Bond: For the James Bond film A View to a Kill, French translators couldn't find a suitable translation, so they went with a completely different title, Dangereusement Vôtre (Dangerously Yours). It was chosen as a reference to Roger Moore's TV series The Persuaders!, which was very popular in France, and was called Amicalement Vôtre (Friendly Yours) there. In Italian, the movie was titled "Moving Target", which is Hilarious in Hindsight because the phrase was spoken by Bond in Skyfall. The UK Working Title for the 1989 James Bond film Licence to Kill was License Revoked. It was reportedly changed because American viewers were not expected to know what "revoked" means, and face it, License to Kill just sounds better. The Ultimate Edition DVD documentary Inside License to Kill explains that the reason for the change was that to Americans, the term "license revoked" denotes lost driving privileges. Skyfall was relabeled as "Operation: Skyfall" in Latin America (both Spanish and Portuguese), turning it into a Non-Indicative Name given Skyfall is a place, not a codename of sorts. In Italian, Dr. No was released as Licence to Kill; when the phrase was used to title the second Timothy Dalton Bond movie it was titled "Vendetta Privata" (Private Revenge). The Living Daylights, on the other hand, was titled Dangerous Zone. In Korean, Tomorrow Never Dies was released as 007 Never Die, The World Is Not Enough as 007 Unlimited, and Die Another Day as 007 Another Day. |

Several episodes of Thomas & Friends, mostly from the first few seasons, had their titles changed for the American dub of the show. Some of these changes were due to differences in railroad terminology (e.g. "Troublesome Trucks" became "Foolish Freight Cars", and "Thomas and the Guard" became "Thomas and the Conductor"), while others don't have a clear explanation (e.g. "Off the Rails" became "Gordon Takes a Dip", and "Dirty Work" became "Diesel's Devious Deed"). | |

In the latter half of the 1980s, Ford used the brand name "Merkur" in North America for two car models (the German word for the Greek god and element Mercury - the cars were sold through the Lincoln-Mercury dealer channel), the Merkur XR4Ti and the Merkur Scorpio. These were localized versions of the European-originated Ford Sierra XR4i and Ford Scorpio (which itself was called "Ford Granada Scorpio" in the UK). (Incidentally, in Gunsmith Cats, Roy's car is a Sierra XR4i, and it's called by that name and visibly has a "Ford" badge on the front, despite the story being set in the US. Perhaps he customized it with a Ford logo?) | |

Unsurprisingly, G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero was released outside the U.S. as either "G.I. Joe: An International Hero" or "Action Force: An International Hero.", or in some areas, just "G.I. Joe" (as is the case of Malaysia and Singapore). This could be considered a same-language example of Cultural Translation. However, there's more to it: Action Force was actually its own continuity before being merged with G.I. Joe. The show was aired under the title The Ultimate Expert Team G.I.JOE in Japan. |

The part-Dutch, part-German, part-Japanese Alfred J. Kwak, which is based on a theater show and comic book created by the Dutch Herman van Veen, is known as Alfred Jodocus Kwak in Dutch. Jodocus is a fairly uncommon name in the Netherlands, but it's also a word meaning "jokester" or something similar. In almost every other country, the name Jodocus was changed to Jonathan. The title of the show is usually shortened to Alfred J. Kwak pretty much everywhere, including the Netherlands. In Japanese, the cartoon is known as "The Big Love Story of a Little Duck: Duck Kwak" (Chiisana Ahiru no Ooki na Ai no Monogatari Ahiru no Kuwakku). | |

The Japanese version of Wreck-It Ralph is called Sugar Rush (シュガー・ラッシュ), because most of the movie takes place in that game, and because the Sugar Rush theme is sung by the Japanese girl group AKB48. Ralph Breaks the Internet is called Sugar Rush: Online (シュガー・ラッシュ:オンライン) in turn. | |

In the 1985 Red Sonja movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger's character's name was changed to Yado in the Italian dub and the movie is titled Yado to make him appear to be the protagonist. The Latin American Spanish title of the film is "El Guerrero Rojo (The Red (male) Warrior)", which also technically makes Ahnold's character the titular one... even if he never wears red and doesn't appears until at least the halfway point of the film (the kid and his bodyguard do wear red, but they are pretty obviously secondary characters). The European Spanish translation used "Sonja, La Guerrera (Sonja the Warrior)", which is a bit more faithful. | |

Napoleon Dynamite became Bus Man, which doesn't make too much sense. It's probably a reference to Train Man (2004), given the geekiness of the title character. Not that there's much similarity beyond that... | |

Where's Wally? is published as Where's Waldo? in the U.S. and Canada. Even creator Martin Handford refers to him as "Waldo" in many interviews and press releases. The name of the character's Evil Twin is Odlaw ("Waldo" backwards), even in the UK. Admittedly, "Yllaw" doesn't have the same ring to it. | |

Airplane! is called Flying High in Australian and New Zealand English, and Japanese, because that isn't how you spell it there (at least in the former two). Why they couldn't just change it to Aeroplane! is unknown, but it does add a mildly amusing double entendre. | |

After Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin won the NWA International Lightweight Tag Team titles at ZERO1 Tenka Ichi Jr. - Day 2 - Max Land ~ Progress, the team became a hot commodity among bookers...who couldn't agree on what to call them. The next promotion to book them was California based Pro Wrestling Guerilla, which went with "Motor City Machine Guns" but when they showed up in Chicago at ROH Good Times Great Memories they were the Murder City Machine Guns. When ROH and PWG enacted a talent sharing deal in 2016 "Motor" was used everywhere. | |

Fist of the North Star (aka Hokuto no Ken) is known as Ken il Guerriero ("Ken: The Warrior") in Italy and Ken le Survivant ("Ken: The Survivor") in France. Both of these titles are likely derived from Ken: The Great Bear Fist, which was Toei Animation's proposed English title for the anime before they went with Fist of the North Star. The title Fist of the North Star itself is not an exact translation of Hokuto no Ken as the "Hokuto" in the Japanese title refers to the "Big Dipper" constellation and not to the North Star in particular, which is not actually part of the seven stars that forms the Big Dipper. | |

Harry Potter: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone became Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in America. It was initially marketed as a children's book, and some of the higher-ups believed that American kids wouldn't be familiar with the real-life legend of the Philosopher's Stone, and a more magical-sounding name would be more inviting. Her American publisher initially proposed Harry Potter and the School of Magic, but Rowling didn't like it and suggested "Sorcerer's Stone" as a compromise. Interestingly, in France the novel was released under a similar title to the "School of Magic" alternative (Harry Potter à l'école des sorciers — Harry Potter at Wizards' School) for the exact opposite reason: the story of Nicolas Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone is well known enough in France that the translators were afraid that the English title would be too much of a spoiler. For Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Rowling herself suggested that translations could be based on the phrase "Relics of Death", as many languages didn't have an appropriate equivalent for "Hallows". Apparently that wasn't enough, since reportedly she had to tell the different translators what the phrase referred to before the book was out so that they could tell their audiences what the translated title would be. |

Mainframe's (the same studio behind Beast Wars) Shadow Raiders was named such because it was loosely based on a US-based toy line named War Planets, and they couldn't include War in the name of a children's cartoon in Canada. Initial US runs restored the series name to War Planets to match the toys... but later runs kept the name Shadow Raiders which was the original for the series, but a Market Based Title compared to the toys it was based on. Confused yet? In fact, after the release of the cartoon (which was a huge hit), the toys were renamed to Shadow Raiders for the Canadian market; reruns of the series have since used a combined title, with the War Planets name spelled out in tiny lettering above the Shadow Raiders logo. |

Many of the Deverry novels have had their titles changed when released in the UK. The series is divided into multiple subseries, with the first two quartets having a pattern of the first two books' title sharing one structure and the second two books another. The UK editions retitle the second pair of books to reflect the structure of the first two books: Thus, while Daggerspell and Darkspell retain their titles, The Bristling Wood becomes Dawnspell: The Bristling Wood (keeping the original title as a subtitle) while The Dragon Revenant becomes Dragonspell: The Southern Sea (ditching the original title altogether). Likewise, A Time of Exile and A Time of Omens are followed by Days of Blood and Fire and Days of Air and Darkness in the US, while readers in the UK know them as A Time of War and A Time of Justice. Books after that retain their original titles, although in the UK, The Gold Falcon, The Spirit Stone, The Shadow Isle and The Silver Mage are labeled as books four to seven of The Dragon Mage, while in the US they are considered a separate quartet entitled The Silver Wyrm (where The Dragon Mage is a mere trilogy). |

In Hispanic America and Brazil, the original Total Recall (1990) got a name inspired by The Terminator; since the latter was called "The Terminator from the Future", Recall became "The Avenger of the Future". | |

It's marketed as "Rocky" in Malaysia (possibly to avoid sounding like "pork", which is prohibited by Islam, or because it sounds like puki, which is the Malay word for a woman's vaginanote The latter excuse is extremely shaky given that Garfield's teddy bear's name was left uncensored in the country- and this coming from a country who willingly excises Orson's Farm/US Acres from the animated broadcast). This is actually a zig-zagging trope- one can still buy the original Pocky at import stores. Ironically, both versions come from the same factory in Thailand. One could argue that Rocky is marketed to the general public, while Pocky is marketed to Otakus and expats. | |

In Korean, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers was called Invincible Power Rangers. Power Rangers Zeo became known as Zeo Rangers. Power Rangers in Space became known as Mega Rangers (not to be confused with its Sentai counterpart Denji Sentai Megaranger, Power Rangers Samurai's Mega Mode, or Power Rangers Megaforce). Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue became known simply as Power Rangers Rescue. Power Rangers Wild Force was broadcasted as Power Force Rangers. Oddly enough, they later switched from Power Rangers dubs to Super Sentai dubs, yet kept the Power Rangers name (often some version of "Power Rangers: The Something Force"): Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger as Power Rangers : Dino Thunder Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger as Power Rangers : S.P.D. Mahou Sentai Magiranger as Power Rangers : Magic Force GoGo Sentai Boukenger as Power Rangers : Treasure Force Juken Sentai Gekiranger as Power Rangers : Wild Spirit Engine Sentai Go-onger as Power Rangers : Engine Force Samurai Sentai Shinkenger went unbroadcasted in Korean, but they were renamed Blade Force in the Korean dubbing of Kamen Rider Decade that featured the guest appearances of Shinkenger. Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger as Power Rangers : Jungle Force Tensou Sentai Goseiger as Power Rangers : Miracle Force Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger as Power Rangers : Captain Force Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters as Power Rangers : Go-Busters Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger as Power Rangers : Dino Force Ressha Sentai ToQger as Power Rangers : Train Force Shuriken Sentai Ninninger as Power Rangers : Ninja Force Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger as Power Rangers : Animal Force Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger as Power Rangers : Lupin Force vs Patrol Force Uchu Sentai Kyuranger as Power Rangers : Galaxy Force Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger as Power Rangers : Dino Soul Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger as Power Rangers : Zenkaiger Avataro Sentai Donbrothers as Power Rangers : Donbrothers |

DuckTales (1987) in Norwegian is called "Ole, Dole og Doffen på eventyr" (Huey, Dewey, and Louie on Adventures). The reboot, however, is just called DuckTales (2017). In South Korea, the original show was called The Greedy Uncle Duck while the reboot was aired as Adventures of Donald Duck Family. | |

UHF was known as The Vidiot From UHF internationally, mostly due to Executive Meddling. When told to come up with a new title for when the movie was in places where the term "UHF" would have no meaning to the general public, "Weird Al" Yankovic suggested "Vidiots", at which point it got the clumsy title because they still wanted it to tie into the original title. Al was not amused. | |

For the James Bond film A View to a Kill, French translators couldn't find a suitable translation, so they went with a completely different title, Dangereusement Vôtre (Dangerously Yours). It was chosen as a reference to Roger Moore's TV series The Persuaders!, which was very popular in France, and was called Amicalement Vôtre (Friendly Yours) there. In Italian, the movie was titled "Moving Target", which is Hilarious in Hindsight because the phrase was spoken by Bond in Skyfall. | |

In the UK, Quentin Tarantino's film Inglourious Basterds was referred to simply as Inglorious in advertising materials prior to its release, though sometimes the full title was shown on screen (but not spoken) on ads airing after the 9pm watershed. Later television airings have had the title typed up on Film Four's continuity slides as Inglorious B------s and the continuity announcer will only refer to it as something like "Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece''. | |

The original version of Miracle on 34th Street was released as The Big Heart in the UK, probably because Brits in 1947 would have had no idea where "34th Street" was or what it meant. Averted with the 1994 remake, which was released as Miracle on 34th Street on both sides of the pond. In Germany, both versions were released as Das Wunder von Manhattan (The Wonder from Manhattan). | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: In Korean, the first Thor film was released as Thor : The God of Thunder to help the audiences who weren't familiar with Marvel Comics or the original North Mythology get the idea of the story. When Captain America: The First Avenger was released, Paramount — afraid that anti-American sentiment would lead to poor box office performance outside the United States — offered its international distributors the option of removing Captain America from the title and marketing the film as simply The First Avenger. Ultimately, only the Russian, Ukrainian and Korean versions ended up using the altered title. While the Korean versions of later Captain America films would stop changing the titles, the Russian and Ukrainian versions would continue this practice (even coordinating the name changes, which is odd considering the two countries have since then become enemies). Captain America: the Winter Soldier became First Avenger: AnotherNote on translationThe word the translators used, друга(Ñ�), means different in Russian and second in Ukrainian. War, presumably because the Winter Soldier is not well known in these countries and (in Russia) would probably be viewed as offensive. Captain America: Civil War was first renamed to Breaking of the Avengers (completely disregarding the movie's protagonist), but following controversy it became First Avenger: Confrontation (which is still odd, considering the Civil War comic retained its original name both in Russian and Ukrainian). The sequel Captain America: The Winter Soldier was changed to The Return of the First Avenger in German, leaving out the Captain America part entirely. This was almost certainly due to hostility to the US in Germany over the revelation that the NSA had been tapping Angela Merkel's mobile phone, although coincidentally the film itself took a highly negative view towards intelligence agencies committing authoritarian acts in the pursuit of "security". The second sequel, Captain America: Civil War, was renamed The First Avenger: Civil War in German. The Avengers (2012) was called Avengers Assemble (not related to the later animated series) in the UK and Ireland, possibly to avoid any confusion with the classic British TV show and to avoid reminders of the 90s film based off the show. Thor: The Dark World had a slight title change to Thor: The Dark Kingdom in German. In Japanese, the Thor films were renamed Mighty Thor (so Thor: The Dark World becomes Mighty Thor: Dark World). Thor: Ragnarok's subtitle was also changed in Japanese, becoming Mighty Thor: Battle Royale. |

X-Men: Days of Future Past is called X-Men: Days of the Past Future in Castilian Spanish, mostly because it sounds better when translated to Spanish. The same change was applied to the original comic book. The film became known as X-Men: Future & Past in Japanese. |

The Japanese title of Legally Blonde is "Cutie Blonde", as if it really needed to sound even more hyper and cutesy. The sequel is even more hyper—the subtitle was changed from "Red, White & Blonde" to "Happy MAX". The Russian title tried to preserve the pun by calling it Blondinka v Zakone, or "Blonde in Law". The "in-law" particle has a very different connotation in Russian - rather than referring to relatives-in-law, all of whom have separate terms in Russian, it refers to vory v zakone or "thieves in law", the elite of The Mafiya. In European French, it became Revenge of a Blonde. Meanwhile in Korean, it was called The Blond is Going Too Far to emphasize the film's comedic nature. | |

Big Hero 6 is named Baymax (ベイマックス) after the Ensemble Dark Horse robot in Japanese. This is probably because Big Hero 6 itself is already an Intentional Engrish for Funny title, which would perhaps translate back into an even more nonsensical name in Japanese. It was simply renamed Big Hero in Korean. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender became Avatar: The Legend of Aang in the UK, most likely because "bender" is a derogatory British term for homosexual.note Think of the backstory: "twelve year old boy is taken in hand by an older male and becomes a Bender..." Of course, they couldn't do anything about the characters talking about "benders" throughout the entire series... However the cover of the box set of season 3 released in the UK has the The Last Airbender subtitle on the cover rather than The Legend of Aang which was on the boxsets of the first two seasons. The Legend of Aang title was also sometimes used in Australia, despite the fact that "bender" is unheard of in Australia. Since a lot of Australian and British DVDs both make use of the 50Hz PAL signal, however, they probably just switched the region on the DVDs. On the TV show, however, it uses The Last Airbender. Didn't help that while the show aired as "Avatar: The Last Airbender" in Asia on Nickelodeon, on Amazon Prime Video Asia the show is called "The Legend of Aang", probably due to Amazon Prime Video's regional servers for Asia being situated in Australia. More perplexing is how the movie (which is also on the service) is still called "The Last Airbender" (without the Avatar part, however). To add to the irony, both "The Last Airbender" and "The Legend of Aang" editions were aired on Nick Asia for some reason. The American version of Nicktoons: Attack of the Toybots managed to slip the "Legend of Aang" subtitle through. Then again, the game's developers (Blue Tongue; you may know them for de Blob nowadays) are based in Australia, and this is the same Licensed Game series that insists that Invader Zim always be capitalized as "INVADER ZIM" for no apparent reason. With the release of the sequel series The Legend of Korra, the UK subtitle is somewhat more appropriate because it appears consistent and helps unify the Korra and Aang series by their core concept: following the journeys of Avatars in the Avatar Cycle. Outside the US (where the creators were unable to use the name anymore because of legal issues, thanks to the release of James Cameron's Avatar), the Korra series is known as "Avatar: The Legend of Korra", further reinforcing this concept. |

The Canadian movie The Legend of Sarila was retitled Frozen Land for its releases in the United States. While the logo and title are ripoffs of Frozen, the actual film has no similarities other than them both taking place in snowy environments. The logo was so blatantly ripped off that Disney sued over it, forcing American distributor Phase 4 Films to change it back to the original title. In the UK, it was known as "An Eskimo Tale". | |

Tenkū no Shiro Laputa was translated as Laputa: Castle in the Sky in Europe and Australia, but in America, the "Laputa" was dropped from the title and it became simply Castle in the Sky. The reason for the change is that "la puta" is Spanish for "the whore". | |

Two of the books in the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson series had their titles changed for a US release. It's OK, I'm Wearing Really Big Knickers became On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God ("knickers" in British English means women's underpants; in American English it means "knickerbockers", or knee-length trousers). ...

Ooops! Noah Is Gone… has four different titles in English alone. In the North America, it's called All Creatures Big and Small. In the UK and Ireland, it's called Two by Two. An American religious home media release uses the British title followed by the subtitle God's Little Creatures. | |

Charlie's Angels (2000) was released in Korean as The Beautiful Trio to match the localized title of the original television series. The sequel Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle was released in the same market as The Beautiful Trio : Maximum Speed. Charlie's Angels (2019) was called The Beautiful Trio 3 although it isn't directly related to the two aforementioned films. | |

This happened to the Japanese-made Unicron Trilogy as well. Transformers Micron Legend became Transformers: Armada, Transformers Superlink became Transformers: Energon, and Transformers Galaxy Force became Transformers: Cybertron. Other way around, really, since all three lines were created by Hasbro and renamed for the Japanese market. | |

Similarly, all of the Showa Gamera movies released by AIP-TV were re-titled for their English dubs Gamera vs. Barugon became War of the Monsters. Gamera vs. Gyaos became Return of the Giant Monsters. Gamera vs. Viras became Destroy All Planets (most likely to cash in on the concurrent release of Destroy All Monsters, even though the two have nothing in common). Gamera vs. Guiron became Attack of the Monsters. Gamera vs. Jiger became Gamera vs Monster X (even though Jiger was never called that in the dub). At least got to keep Gamera in the title. |

The Australian television show Prisoner was billed Prisoner: Cell Block H in the UK and United States (though the show itself retained the original onscreen title in the UK) and Caged Women in Canada. This was to avoid confusion with The Prisoner (1967), an unrelated British show. Also, its 2013 "reimagining" as Wentworth was called Wentworth Prison in the UK. This time they did change the onscreen title as well. | |

In Japanese, Silence, the adaptation of Shusaku End�'s novel Silence, known as 沈黙 (Chinmoku) in its home country, directed by Martin Scorsese, was titled Chinmoku: Sairensu (with the latter term written in katakana) to distinguish from the 1971 adaptation of the novel by Masahiro Shinoda, which was called Chinmoku: SILENCE (with the latter term written in English). Averted in English, where both films are simply titled Silence. | |

Cardcaptor Sakura: The anime was known as Cardcaptors in English speaking countries such as the US and the UK. In some other countries it is known as Sakura Cardcaptors. However, many American viewers would know it by the Japanese title, because the bumpers on Kids' WB!, the block where it aired, still calls it "Cardcaptor Sakura". Part of the reasoning behind the rename is because the series was edited by way of a Dub-Induced Plotline Change to make Syaoran Li a more equal main character since they didn't think it would do well with the major focus being on Sakura. So, the two were collectively called Cardcaptors. It was broadcasted by the title Card Captor Cherry in Korean. |

The Empire Novels: The UK publication (in 1969) changed the name from Triangle to An Isaac Asimov Second Omnibus, to reference An Isaac Asimov Omnibus, which had been published three years ago (in 1966). When the Science Fiction Book Club printed the Omnibus in 2002 for its members, they gave it the new title The Empire Novels, referencing the Tyranni/Trantorian Empire. When publishing the trilogy as a set of stand-alone novels, some publishers add different subtitle/taglines that indicate these books are Dr Asimov's Galactic Empire series. The Stars, Like Dust was published as Beyond the Dark Nebula in Japanese, and simply as The Dark Nebula in Korean. |

The first season of Beast Wars was released in Japanese under its English title with the additional modifier Super Lifeform Transformers; however, for reasons relating to the way shows are broadcast in Japan, the second and third were released under the title Beast Wars Metals.

Moana received the new title Vaiana in Spanish and Oceania in Italian. "Vaiana" is the new name of the heroine, a Tahitian word meaning "water from the cave". The reasons: "Moana" is a registered trademark in Spain and other European countries; also, this has not been officially stated, but in Italy the name "Moana" is inextricably linked to legendary porn actress Moana Pozzi. In Japanese it was renamed to "Moana and the Legendary Sea" (モアナ��説�海) as per Disney Japan's preference for renaming its animated movies with longer titles. And in Vietnamese, it got a new title: Moana's Journey (Hà nh trình của Moana). | |

The American Dennis the Menace cartoon was renamed Dennis in the UK, presumably due to the existing UK comic character of the same name. Likewise the British Dennis the Menace cartoon is known as Dennis and Gnasher (or in some cases, "Dennis the Menace and Gnasher") internationally, likely for the same reason (Gnasher is the name of the British Dennis's dog, by the way). The subsequent UK-Australian co-produced cartoon is called Dennis and Gnasher even in the UK, however. In Italy, the cartoon versions kept the original name for the UK Dennis and renamed the US one Denny, while in the comic they kept the original name for US Dennis and renamed the UK one Mino la Minaccia ("Mino the Menace"). Confusing? Yes. In Latin America is known as Daniel el Travieso (meaning Daniel the Naughty) because it was though that the term "menace" (amenaza in Spanish) was too aggressive and the name change was an effort to use a much more common name in Spanish. This caused some Spanish-speaking people to think that Dennis is Daniel in English. The name Dennis is translated to Spanish as Dionisio and the name Daniel in English is... well, Daniel in Spanish (it’s pronounced differently, though). In Swedish and Norwegian, the comic is simply known as "Dennis" because the "Menace" rhyme doesn't translate. |

The English versions of Pokémon Special (North America and Singapore) were renamed Pokémon Adventures - because the use of "Special" sounds like it's a one-episode wonder rather than something with a continuing storyline. In addition, the North American releases of Adventures stopped for a while and were pretty far behind, so they tried to catch up by running later story arcs concurrently as separate series, named Pokémon Adventures: [chapter subtitle] (such as Diamond and Pearl/Platinum or HeartGold & SoulSilver). | |

Night of the Eagle: American International Pictures insisted on playing up the horror-occult themes of the film when marketing it. As part of this, the film's original title was changed to the more ominous Burn, Witch, Burn - a line that Margaret Johnston speaks in the film. Also, the voice-over opening where a spell is cast upon the audience was added for setting the tone. | |

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift was retitled to Wild Speed X3: Tokyo Drift. Fast & Furious was retitled to Wild Speed MAX. Fast Five was retitled to Wild Speed MEGA MAX. Fast & Furious 6 was retitled to Wild Speed: Euro Mission. Furious 7 was retitled to Wild Speed: Sky Mission. The Fate of the Furious was retitled to Wild Speed: Ice Break. Hobbs & Shaw was retitled to Wild Speed: Super Combo. F9 was retitled to Wild Speed: Jet Break. Furious 7 was released as Fast & Furious 7 in several countries in case people failed to associate the movie with the previous movies in the franchise. This was also true for the other films in the franchise, which lost their fancy titles (i.e. 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift, Fast 5) in said markets to ensure that viewers knew they were part of the franchise. |

The Bible has been hit by a lot of this over the centuries. Ever notice how we use Greek or Latin names for a bunch of ancient Hebrew books? For example, the Book of Ecclesiastes has nothing to do with ecclesiastical matters (i.e. how to organize a church). Its original name was Koheleth, which means "The Teacher", and actually fits the content of the book.note That said, "Ecclesiastes" is not a bad name for the book; the word derives from a Greek one meaning "gathering together", and the book is a gathering of sayings, just as an ekklesia or church is a gathering together of believers. Historically, ekklesia meant the popular assembly of a democratic polis (city-state) like Athens. It came to mean "church" much later. | |

The Japanese show Money no Tora ("Money Tigers") had its format exported internationally as Dragons' Den. When it reached the United States, it was renamed again to Shark Tank (presumably as a reference to "Loan Sharks"). In a few other countries, it's Lion's Den. And a handful of countries have versions with their own titles unrelated to dragons, sharks, or lions; but those are the three main international titles. | |

Dawn of the Dead (1978)... hoo boy. First off, for its European release it was recut by Dario Argento and given the title Zombi. The following year, another Italian filmmaker, Lucio Fulci, made the unofficial sequel Zombi 2, which was itself released under a bunch of titles in various countries, including Zombie in America and Zombie Flesh Eaters in the UK. Zombi 3, however, was released in America as Zombie 3, despite America having only known of its predecessor as Zombie. (In the UK, it was called Zombie Flesh Eaters 2.) The unrelated zombie film After Death was also released in the US as Zombi 4: After Death (and in the UK as Zombie Flesh Eaters 3), as was another unrelated zombie film, Killing Birds, as Zombie 5: Killing Birds. Things get even crazier after that. This Wikipedia article on the series lists all the various films that have been released at various points as Zombi sequels. | |

When the Super Sentai series started getting English-language DVD releases with Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger, the series was referred to as "Super Sentai Zyuranger" (with the front cover reading "Super Sentai" in big letters with "Zyuranger" at the bottom), presumably to create more consistent branding for the franchise. Later releases starting with Gosei Sentai Dairanger would refer to the shows by their full titles, while retaining the "Super Sentai" name at the top. Zyuranger is the only one still referred to by the different title in marketing. On shopping sites like Amazon and Shout Factory, the full title is "Power Rangers: Super Sentai: (season name)" | |

In the original Japanese as well as the English manga release of Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch, "Mermaid Melody" is the subtitle (although it comes before the main title... supertitle?).

In America, the French film La Vie d'Adèle – Chapitres 1 & 2 ("Life of Adele - Chapters 1 & 2") is known as Blue Is the Warmest Color. Funnily enough, the original graphic novel that the film is based on is actually called Blue is the Warmest Color (or, rather, Le bleu est une couleur chaude). And the main character's name in the original is Clementine, not Adele. Go figure. | |

Several of the Horatio Hornblower TV films were renamed for the American market. Indeed, in the UK, the series was simply titled Hornblower, the naming being extended to include the character's first name for the US. "The Even Chance" became "The Duel" "The Examination For Lieutenant'' became "The Fire Ships" "The Frogs and the Lobsters" became "The Wrong War" |

The French-British CGI film The Magic Roundabout (2005) was mostly redubbed (the voices of Kylie Minogue and Ian McKellen were retained - curiously, the Evil Brit trope was averted due to the bad guy (done by Tom Baker) getting revoiced by Jon Stewart) and retitled Doogal in America. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters became simply Yu-Gi-Oh! outside of Japan, as the anime simply known as Yu-Gi-Oh! in Japanese (referred to as "Season Zero" by the fanbase) was never released outside of its native country. Similarly, the sequel series Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters GX was simply called Yu-Gi-Oh! GX internationally. After that, the Japanese anime dropped the "Duel Monsters" from the title, and the titles were the same in and out of Japan from then on. In a rare "English title first" example for an anime, as well as a reversal of the above examples, Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie: Pyramid of Light (produced by 4Kids Entertainment) was later released in Japan with the title Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters: Hikari no Pyramid. Gekij�ban Yu-Gi-Oh!: Ch�-Yūg�! Toki o Koeta Kizuna (Yu-Gi-Oh! the Movie: Super Fusion! Bonds That Transcend Time) had its title simplified to Yu-Gi-Oh!: Bonds Beyond Time in English. |

The Avengers (2012) was called Avengers Assemble (not related to the later animated series) in the UK and Ireland, possibly to avoid any confusion with the classic British TV show and to avoid reminders of the 90s film based off the show. | |

Digimon Xros Wars is called Digimon Fusion in the U.S. dub, and any dubs based on it (such as the Latin American one). The same series is known as Digimon Fusion Battles in the Disney XD Malaysia airing (which utilizes an alternate English dub, as shown in this trailer) and in the Italian one. Coincidentally, "Digimon Fusion Battles" used to be the Working Title for the U.S. dub prior to removing "battles" in the title. | |

In the United States, the portions of the Dragon Ball manga that correspond to what was animated under the name Dragon Ball Z is released under the latter name, as the anime was by far the most visible portion of the franchise. Dragon Ball Kai was released internationally under the title Dragon Ball Z Kai. Likewise, when the second half of that series was released in the West, it came as Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters, when the original series kept the same title all the way through. Funimation renamed the original 13 Dragon Ball Z movies when localizing them for the west - for example, "Close Fight - A Violent Fight - A Super Fierce Fight" got translated as Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan, while "Dragon Fist Explosion!! If Goku Can't Do It, Who Will?" got translated as Wrath of the Dragon. In fact, basically all of the DBZ's movies were renamed to names that described the antagonist and/or their goal, instead actually translating the original name. |

Beast Wars: Transformers was known in Canada as Beasties, because the word "war" could not be used in children's cartoons per regulations. This is especially weird considering that the show was actually produced in Canada. The first season of Beast Wars was released in Japanese under its English title with the additional modifier Super Lifeform Transformers; however, for reasons relating to the way shows are broadcast in Japan, the second and third were released under the title Beast Wars Metals. Beast Machines then became Beast Wars Returns. Also, The Transformers for some reason became Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers when it was released in Japanese, with the third season released as Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers 2010. Later, Transformers: Car Robots would become Transformers: Robots in Disguise when it was released in America. This happened to the Japanese-made Unicron Trilogy as well. Transformers Micron Legend became Transformers: Armada, Transformers Superlink became Transformers: Energon, and Transformers Galaxy Force became Transformers: Cybertron. Other way around, really, since all three lines were created by Hasbro and renamed for the Japanese market. Transformers: Prime was released in Japanese as Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Prime. Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015) was released in Japanese as Transformers Adventure for its first season, and Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron- or Micron Chapter for its second season and miniseries. |

Diary of a Wimpy Kid has gone through many name changes. First, there's the book series as a whole, the title of which often is changed in translation. The Swedish title translates to "Diary for all my fans." This is a reference to how Greg says that when he becomes rich and famous, he'll give reporters his old diary to read so that he won't have to waste time answering their questions. The Dutch title means "The life of a loser." In Vietnamese, it's called "Diary of a shy boy." In Japanese, it's called "Greg's Useless Diary". Sure, Greg isn't too happy about the journal, but for him to actually call it useless is a bit of a stretch. The first book is just called Diary of a Wimpy Kid, so translators have often made up their own titles for it. In Swedish, it's called "The feats of Greg." In Dutch, it's called "Bram Boterman's logbook." A republishing in the Brazilian Portuguese language added a subtitle related to the one of the book's events, "Cheese Touch." Book 6, Cabin Fever, is renamed often, partly since not every language has a word for cabin fever. Its Swedish title is "Manny's Maneuver'', which is a Spoiler Title about the cause of the blackout that befalls Greg and his family. The Dutch title roughly means "Don't panic!" In Castilian Spanish, it's called "No exit!" The Latin American title is "Trapped in the snow!" In Brazilian Portuguese, it's called "House of Horrors." In Portugese, the name is "Get me out of here!" Its Vietnamese title is "Stuck." In Italian, it's called "Save yourselves, anyone who can!" |

The sequel Captain America: The Winter Soldier was changed to The Return of the First Avenger in German, leaving out the Captain America part entirely. This was almost certainly due to hostility to the US in Germany over the revelation that the NSA had been tapping Angela Merkel's mobile phone, although coincidentally the film itself took a highly negative view towards intelligence agencies committing authoritarian acts in the pursuit of "security". | |

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is simply Kimetsu no Yaiba in Japanse (roughly translating as "Demon Destruction Blade" - a modification of the originally planned "Kisatsu no Yaiba" - "Demon Slaying Blade"), but the English title adds Demon Slayer before that to likely make the premise more clear. In France the manga was initially known as Les Rôdeurs de la nuit ("The Night Prowlers") before being discontinued and restarted under the English title; Shueisha, however, left the series with a completely new title in spanish: Guardianes de la Noche ("Night Guardians"). Some other markets use just the Japanese title or just the translation of the first part of the (rather Colon Cancer-like) English title. | |

Casualty 1906 was titled London Hospital in the US, because it was an In Name Only spin-off from the British series CASUAL+Y, which didn't air in the States.

With the release of the sequel series The Legend of Korra, the UK subtitle is somewhat more appropriate because it appears consistent and helps unify the Korra and Aang series by their core concept: following the journeys of Avatars in the Avatar Cycle. Outside the US (where the creators were unable to use the name anymore because of legal issues, thanks to the release of James Cameron's Avatar), the Korra series is known as "Avatar: The Legend of Korra", further reinforcing this concept. | |

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: The show was just called The New Adventures of Superman in the UK because it was assumed UK viewers would not have heard of the Lewis and Clark expedition. After transferring to ITV the original titlecard is retained but the network still refers to it as "The New Adventures of Superman" (although when the final season premiered on Sky it was called by the original title). The DVDs retain the original title as well. The show bacame Superman for obvious reason, and called by the title Lois and Clark's Superman in its final season, in Korean. (The same station broadcasted The Adventures of Superboy as just Superman several years before, ignoring Superboy moniker in the show) |

Pretty Cure: Saban Brands' English adaption of Smile Pretty Cure! changed its name to Glitter Force, and Doki Doki! PreCure was renamed to Glitter Force Doki Doki. However, Toei Animation refers to the series by their Japanese names on their English website. While said website gives English names for every Pretty Cure series, some don't line up with their Japanese logos: Futari wa Pretty Cure is referred to as simply Pretty Cure, Maho Girls Pretty Cure! is Witchy Pretty Cure!, HuGtto! Pretty Cure is HUG! Pretty Cure, and Hirogaru Sky! Pretty Cure is Soaring Sky! Pretty Cure. Futari wa Pretty Cure was broadcasted by the title Precure, the Warriors of Light in Korean. Several subsequent seasons went through similar title changes. |

Tangled became known as Rapunzel: A Tangled Tale in certain Asian languages (simply Rapunzel (ë�¼í‘¼ì ¤) in Korean). Despite this, both Disney Channel Asia and Star Movies still refer to the film under its original name, while in Japanese it was titled Rapunzel at the Top of the Tower (å¡”ã�®ä¸Šã�®ãƒ©ãƒ—ンツェル), which in turn affected the Japanese airing of Tangled: The Series- it became Rapunzel: The Series as an effect of the said title change. | |

The sixth novel in the Hollows series, The Outlaw Demon Wails, was renamed Where Demons Dare in the UK because the publisher felt the namesake movie for the latter would be more familiar to a British audience than the former. A bit similarly, in Polish, the first book - Dead Witch Walking - was retitled Bring Me The Witch's Head, as "dead man walking" is a phrase without a direct equivalent in Polish, and Every Which Way But Dead turned into All Magic Is Good, likely because "which-witch" pun wouldn't carry over into Polish. |

Funimation renamed the original 13 Dragon Ball Z movies when localizing them for the west - for example, "Close Fight - A Violent Fight - A Super Fierce Fight" got translated as Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan, while "Dragon Fist Explosion!! If Goku Can't Do It, Who Will?" got translated as Wrath of the Dragon. In fact, basically all of the DBZ's movies were renamed to names that described the antagonist and/or their goal, instead actually translating the original name. | |

In Spanish and Portuguese, Wander over Yonder changed its title to Galáxia Wander (Wander Galaxy), probably because the wordplay in the original English (the title being slang for "walk over there") does not translate so well.

In the UK and Australia, Neighbors is known as Bad Neighbours to avoid confusion with the Australian Soap Opera Neighbours. Ironically, co-star Rose Byrne is herself Australian (as is her character in the movie, thus allowing her to avert Fake Nationality in an American production for once). | |

Eight Legged Freaks used its original title Arack Attack. That was the original American title, before it was changed in deference to some bizarre cultural sensitivity to words that kinda sound like arab or Iraq. | |

The first part of the anime was retroactively named Pokémon: The Original Series outside of Japan. And sometimes, localization would split the original series into two parts based on generations: Pokémon the Series: The Beginning and Pokémon the Series: Gold and Silver. The first season, simply Pocket Monsters in Japan, was called Pokémon: Indigo League in the English dub. Pocket Monsters: Orange Shot� Hen (Pocket Monster: Orange Archipelago Chapter) became Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands. Pocket Monsters: Kin Gin Hen (Pocket Monster: Gold Silver Chapter) was split into Pokémon: The Johto Journeys, Pokémon: Johto League Champions and Pokémon: Master Quest. |

The American title of the English translation of Let the Right One In was changed to Let Me In, which removes the vampiric nuances of the original title. It was changed due to the original title being "too long". Thanks to the release and success of the Film of the Book, the title has been changed back. They even thought that the author John Ajvide Lindqvist's name was too long and asked him if they could change that too. | |

Mortal Engines: The first book and its sequels are collectively known as "The Hungry City Chronicles" in America, despite the series already having a perfectly good name - the Mortal Engines Quartet. Perhaps they felt the premise of cities eating each other wasn't quite obvious enough. Now, the series has been re-released in America under the name "The Predator Cities Quartet". The four books were collectively published under the brand name "The Traction City Chronicle" in Korean. |

After the Sun and Moon anime, the title in Japan reverted to simply Pocket Monsters. In order to avoid confusion with the first season of the anime, the English dub gave it the title Pokémon Journeys: The Series. The seasons in the English dub were titled Pokémon Journeys: The Series, Pokémon Master Journeys: The Series and Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series. | |

The three Quatermass films produced by Hammer were all renamed when released in English: The Quatermass Experiment became The Creeping Unknown. Quatermass II became Enemy from Space. Quatermass and the Pit became Five Million Years to Earth. Another release simply restored traditional spelling of "Experiment" to the first movie's title. That peculiar title only made sense in Britain, where The Quatermass Xperiment was given an X rating. The British "X" was applied to much tamer material than its American equivalent, but highlighting the rating in the film's title gave notice that the movie featured stronger fare than the norm, for those who like that sort of thing. |
