I'm not fussed about titles whatsoever. Perhaps it's the 'never judge a book by its cover' thing, but if I'm happy about the summary, the category, the author (or hell, if I've nothing else to read) I'll read it. I might not like it, but I don't honestly see how a deep and profound/lyrical/in your face/vague/whatever title is going to make me not read a fic, considering that almost all authors give us something else to go on.
As for titling my own fics - it's a bastard. Really, the title and summary are my biggest obstacle. I'd love to name all my fics 'Untitled - I'll get back to you', but alas, that would be annoying. But likewise, I'm not going to stress myself out over something that I find fun - if someone doesn't read my fic because of the title, then so be it. I'm very easy going when it comes to HP fandom. :)
