List Of Works With Different Titles In The United Kingdom And United States
This page lists works with different titles in the United Kingdom and United States. Unless otherwise noted, UK titles are also used worldwide, excluding Canada, and US titles are also used in Canada. In Australia, a third alternative title, or, more often, a UK or US title may be used, with notes on usage included where known. Not listed are minor changes due to American and British English spelling differences; for example, the American film Rumor Has It... is titled Rumour Has It... in the UK, and, atypically, in Canada as well.
Legend:
- An asterisk (*) indicates which country the work originated in.
- A copyright symbol (©) indicates cases where Canada follows UK usage.

“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”

—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
