Sometimes, a title [[Word Salad Title|makes no sense]]. Sometimes, however, a title will make a sort of sense, but on later [[Fridge Logic|ponderings]], will be seen as misleading. Sometimes this is due to the title being an [[Artifact Title]] or perhaps the writer simply thought it was a [[Rule of Cool|cooler name]]. Also sometimes leads to instances of [[I Am Not Shazam]]. Taken to the extreme, these types of titles can lead to a [[Non-Indicative Name]].
Compare [[Completely Different Title]].

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'' isn't exactly the most accurate translation of the Japanse title, ''Hokuto no Ken'', its just that it sounds a helluva cooler than "Fist of the Big Dipper" (which is what "Hokuto" actually is, the Japanese name for the Big Dipper).
Line 19 ⟶ 20:
** This does not, however, prevent the fans from [[Fan Nickname|calling them the Watchmen]]. The movie even changes the name of the Minutemen to reflect it.

* ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx1EMt_16bo DIGIMON 3: PREDATOR VS DIGIMON]'': The [[Predator]] {{spoiler|isn't the villain; in fact, Digimon has to help him with his dilemma. The actual villains are the FBI.}} Of course, what did you expect with legendary [[Troll Fic]] author [[Peter Chimaera]]?
* ''[[Cupcakes]]''. This ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fanfic is ''not'' about making cupcakes!!
