Is 'The title is called what' correct?

If you're asking someone about the title of a book, movie, and so on, you might say:'What is the title?''Is the title "..."?''Is the book called "..."?''What is the book called?''What is the title of the book?'You wouldn't correctly say, 'The title is what?' unless you were using the phrase in an informal, humorous way.For example, someone says they've just bought a new book and tells you the title, which seems to you a really weird title. You might say, 'The title is what?' as an exclamation.Even in that situation, you still wouldn't say, 'The title is called what?', instead you might say, 'The book is called what?'.
