Comment:

 Hi @salesteam, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the ticket.

 The first input at the top of the page is the title of the attachment.

 Since WordPress 3.5, the `title` attribute is intentionally not added to
 the generated image markup for better accessibility, see the dicsussion in
 #18984.

 Since WordPress 4.7, the title is also not used as a fallback for `alt`
 attribute, see the discussion in #34635.
