Usage Note

Intitular means to give an official title or heading to a document, law, or work — intitular una obra (to entitle a work). It is more formal and less common than titular, which covers the same ground in everyday usage. Intitular appears mainly in legal, archival, and literary contexts, especially in older or Latin American formal writing.
