Whether you're referring to Antigone or Oedipus Rex, Creon, while a major character, is not the central figure in either story, so it would be misleading to call it "King Creon." Sort of like calling "The Outlaw Josey Wales" "Senator James Lane" instead.

Can the play 'Antigone' be called 'King Creon'?
No, "King Creon" cannot be the name of the play "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the play deals with Theban Princess Antigone's defense of divine will, Theban traditions and vulnerable family members. It does so from the position of Antigone as heroic doer of great deeds, main character in the course of all events, and protagonist in conflict with an antagonist. A change in name necessitates a completely different focus and organization.
