How important is the title in a picture?

For me it's always a stressful moment when it comes the time to "name" the picture, through my life I've seen photographies or other kind of art with a medium to low level of interest or level of quality, technique etc etc...but with a very clever title wich transforms this completely deja-vu or forgetable pictures in some kind of "Master pieces" (specially here in DA), this new aquired conceptuality wich evidently in most cases was added at the time of uploading or at the time of puting it in the wall of a gallery or a museum, nowadays is getting more popular, and not in all cases is wrong I just think in some cases it's disguising the lack of previous conceptualization and thought by taking a name of the sleeve at the last moment, sometimes it works (and I totally aplaude it) but sometimes just make you say..."oh come ooooon"!!!

The oposite case: Incredible pictures with a lousy title, but in this case the picture doesn't loose anything nor gains anything. Should not the work speak for itself?? Personally I perfer neutral names (i'm not saying is what I do I just like them) or better: Numbers!! I think i should do that from now on ... hihihihih
anyway I won't worry anymore about titles and just have fun at the baptizing of my children and name my first son: Tokyo, or Robocop, or.. Usnavy, or Onecent, or... Leididy, Anivdelarev, Perestroika, Bolshoi, or even... CiniMini if I'm in the mood.
