Interesting. You're a musician Sam. Are song titles important? I think that names can be evocative and perhaps somehow add something to a work. 'The Scream' vs something like 'Figure Study #78'. I think there's a kind of synergy between the title and the work. A name can't make a work but it can reinforce it IMO. I think that's pretty much true for a picture, a perfume, anything. Vampyroteuthis infernalis is OK but 'Vampire Squid' really hits.
