Hehe!
In fact, in Germany the names of the sets do not have the importance as they
may have in the US. The names of the sets are only shown in the catalogue
and not printed on the boxes as well. Furthermore: The names vary between
the languages (may sound evident). However, it is just due to the well
established LUGNET database that the English/American names of the sets are
now common allover the world. Before we knew LUGNET the 6073 e.g. was only
called "Kleine Burg" (means "Small Castle") or just "Adlerburg" (means
"Eagle Castle". Black Falcon Knights are called "Eagle Knights" in Germany.
Some unrespectful even call them Turkey Knights....) Many people even name
their sets how they want to and do not care about the "official" names.
So most German LEGO fans and collectors identify a set rather by the number
than by the name. This is why no German AFOL would ever have confused the
6073/4 with the "Black Monarch's Castle". But of course it happens that
someone confuses the numbers :-)
