I love the name of the trilogy I'm in the process of finishing: The Dreaming Dark. As a plus all the titles are quite beautiful and poetic as well: The City of Towers, The Shattered Land, and The Gates of Night (which I just got today). They're all by Keith Baker if you think you may be interested.

A couple of people have posted titles with the word "nightingale" in it, I think that's fitting. It's a beautiful word.
"The Wind in the Willows" to me is a gorgeous title.

I don't know why, but I love the title of the classic Chinese tale, Journey to the West. It just has that ring to it!

iPumperdiddle There is a current book I'm reading called "Across the Nightingale Floor" (by Lian Hearn) and it completely captures my imagination. I always picture a tasteful sword brawl between two samurai swordsmen. whee
That was my first thought as well! I also love the rest of the title of that series; Grass for his Pillow, Brilliance of the Moon, Heaven's Net is Wide, Harsh Cry of the Heron. The imagery in the titles is amazing, and so perfectly fitting with the books themselves. Ever read a book that the title didn't suit? I've come a cross a few, and it bothers me.
Wings Over Delft from the Louise Trilogy is another beautiful title, I always picture a dove... Cliche, but beautiful.

I like the title The Land of the Silver Apples, by Nancy Farmer. It is a sequel to The Sea of Trolls. It just sounds so pertty to me.

The Silent Book. It's a very short story by Hans Christian Andersen. I think the title is so beautiful (along with the story) and holds so much mystery. It also gets brownie points for being about a book. XD

"A Wrinkle in Time" -No particular reason. "Stargazer" -I like the ring in it. "Down a Dark Hall" -Very mystifying in my opinion. "Prophecy of the Stones" -I dunno...has a melody to it. "The Tale of Despereaux" -I like the name Despereaux.

Ever A Great and Terrible Beauty The Wild Orchid
Although these are on my to-read list I still think they have beautiful titles.

I think A Midsummer Night's Dream is my favorite. I love the Twilight and Warriors titles too.

'The Unbearable Lightness of Being' I first heard that title years ago and at the time I didn't even know it was a book title and it stuck with me for years until I finally googled it. xP
