Modify article title to insert single quotes around 'Father Damien'

The actual title of the film, according to the title display in the film itself, has single quotes around the words 'Father Damien'. Here's a photograph that shows the single quotes:

The film title as shown in the film itself

The quotation marks are small, so you will need to click on the thumbnail to display the bigger, higher-resolution version of the photo in which the single-quotes are very clear.

In view of this fact, I propose to modify (i.e., "move") the title of this article to insert single quotes around 'Father Damien'. Mksword (talk) 07:28, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The box art uses "Molokai: The Story of Father Damien".--KAVEBEAR (talk) 08:23, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are many posters & covers that don't use the single quotes. More importantly, I can't find any sources that do. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 11:23, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's a bad title card to begin with: it suggests that "Father Damien" was some sort of alias or nickname. It was his proper title! Just a stylistic thing anyway. WHPratt (talk) 04:27, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It did occur to me that the name might have been one bestowed upon him by those he ministered to, but according to the article Father Damien:

Father Damien was born Jozef ("Jef") De Veuster ... .

Jozef entered the novitiate of the Fathers of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Mary at Louvain and took in religion the name of Damien, presumably after the first Saint Damian, a fourth-century physician and martyr.
