title
'der Titel' and 'die Berufsbezeichnung' can both say what a person is officially called. However, 'Berufsbezeichnung' only fits a profession or professional activity, for example 'Ärztin' (female doctor) or 'Mechatroniker' (mechatronics technician). 'Titel' is broader: it can also be an academic degree or a special official designation, for example 'Doktor' or 'Professor'. Learners may confuse the words because some titles are used in professional contexts. When you mean the name of the profession, 'Berufsbezeichnung' is more precise. When you mean a degree, rank, or special official form of address, 'Titel' fits better.
