dubbed

Given a title

Dubbed means named or given a title, often informal or descriptive: The media dubbed him "the king of pop".

The word carries a sense of bestowing identity through declaration rather than formal process.

Separately, dubbed describes audio that has been replaced or added—a dubbed film has dialogue recorded in a different language from the original, or dubbed music has vocals layered over a track.
