Bastard title page / half-title page

Personally I would use half-title page but Bastard title seems to be a widely used term. Take a look at these sites.

Well, most references include the word page somewhere and I just thought it sounded better. However, it is your translation and if you want to use just half title that is your prerogative. Go to Google and do a search for "half title page" and you will see that this is not incorrect.

Olá Carla. Por que você sugere "half-title page" se a referência do Wikipedia é "half title"? Muito obrigada.
