A comment from a deviantArt regular made me rethink how I title my stuff

I was posting a piece in a group there and someone said 'your art is good but your titles are generic'. They were right. I name everything something like 'Forest Path' or 'Dragon Study'. They suggested making titles tell a small story instead. Been trying that for a couple weeks now and my engagement is way up. Has anyone else changed something small like that and seen a difference?

Used to blow off titles as unimportant but you might be onto something here.

Buddy of mine landed a job once where his business card just said "Problem Solver." His boss made him change it to "Operations Coordinator" a month later, said it was too confusing for clients. Titles are a weird, weird game.
