Inconsistent use of 'title' and 'displayName' #4

The semantics of 'title' and 'name' are different. Name refers to the name of an object, title to how the name is displayed (e.g. the name of a book might be "The Hunting of the Snark" but 'title' refers to the physical manifestation of that).

So 'displayName' effectively equals 'title', as 'title' is the physical manifestation of a name.
