Using Document name versus Document title when search documents
I have added a new Document library to my team site and I have noted the following regarding two fields:-

-       -  Name

-       - Title

Now when I upload a new document for example MS word inside SP document library, the document name will be equal to the MS word document name. while the title will be empty unless the original MS word contain a title.

Now I have the following questions:-

  1. When I search for a document , SP will do the following it will display the document name in the search when the document  title is empty. While if the document has a title then the title will be shown in the search result instead of the document name.. so why SP got this behavior ?
  2. From standard point of view , what are the differences between Name & Title ? and why they are not combined in a single field ? I mean when the document name will be different from its title ?
