 Generally speaking, any image uploaded to the media library pulls the
 image file name and inserts that filename into the Title field in the
 media library. However, if a photographer adds additional data, like a
 Headline in the More Info section of the image, the Title field pulls the
 Headline and not the filename.

 I see this as important because in most cases, when uploading any image to
 the media library, the Title field is normally populated by filename and
 it's not apparent to the user after working with WordPress for an extended
 period of time, that the Title field might be populated by anything else
 but the filename. It took me a few hours to finally ascertain what
 information was being pulled for the Title field.

 Here are screenshot to guide developers on this issue.

 MORE INFO meta from Image where Headline is clearly the meta info being
 used for the Title field, and not the filename:
