What Would YOU Have Named the Movies?
Okay, okay, very tongue-in-cheek, but what else would you name them?
1. The Hobbit, the King, and the Ring (like 'lion, the witch, and the wardrobe  )2. A Short Documentry On Southern Spiders 3. Dude, Where's My Oliphant?  |

If the names would have been different instead of Lord of the Rings, maybe War of the Ring or Lord of the Ring (not Rings). Maybe War for Middle-earth.
The Fellowship of the Ring is probably the best name. The Two Towers - The Battle for Helm's Deep or Of Orthanc and Barad-dûr (So we know which two towers are the Two Towers) The Return of the King - The Rise of the King (Make it even more confusing if it's Sauron or Aragorn) But Tolkien's titles are probably the best titles.

1. Frodo Baggins and the Dark Lord's Ring
2. Frodo Baggins and the Chamber of Shelob 3. Samwise Gamgee and the Prisoner of Cirith Ungol 4. Frodo Baggins and the Ring of Fire 6. Sauron and the Full-Blood Heir of Numenor 7. Some random 2000-page book name... Although I personally don't care for HP, it makes good spoof stuff...

I wouldn't change the titles at all. Just think how it would have affected the merchandising.
