why this film named as princess mononoke?


She was like a secondary character and i kinda hated her through her limited screen time. Dont get me wrong i loved the film, but she was like a stupid annoying b*tch that i wanted to slap every time i saw her on the screen.All we know about her she is raised by wolfs and she hates humans just like i hate her.Half of her lines are 'i hate humans'. Despite her stupidity and annoyance she is really underdeveloped. It is obvious that Ashitaka is the main protagonist of this film but why this film named as princess mononoke? Even 'Deer God' would be more meaningful name for the film.

The film was going to be called "The Legend of Ashitaka" or something like that.
I don't remember the reason for the title change, though.

"Citizen Kane" fan, "Frozen" fan, and "Boyhood" fan. ;)
