Which would seem to be a reason *not* to use the name for a non-fighting street thief who speaks perfect English.
People who do know her are a fraction of the movie-going public, and all they did using her name was aggravate folks who know and like the comics character.
Don't ask me to defend them using Cass
I honestly don't think that they had full confidence in Harley, hence why her movie was propped up by four of the most popular street level characters DC has.
And natch, Harley will get another movie, but the Birds? Not so much...
Sure, but the project that was greenlit was a Harley movie not a BoP movie. My understanding was that in the planning stages Robbie asked if there could be one or two other female characters in the story that she could play off. That morphed into what we ended up with.
I'm pretty sure this was fake news though, that it was just one movie theatre.
I don't get this criticism...no one gets mad at Guardians of the Galaxy for miss advertising itself when Star Lord is the main protagonist (So it should be called Star Lord and the Guardians of the Galaxy). Ensemble films (well, all the good ones, heh) still have a primary protagonist.

Eh, depends which Huntress you're using
The difference is that they have a stronger story and still leave some plot for the rest to stand out.
Cass, Canary, and Huntress all could have carried their own movie. Instead, they had bit parts in Harley's
I'm too lazy to look for a source....It was one of those gossip rags and I think came out of an interview with the actress who played Batgirl. Might have been wishful thinking but I believe (in general) there were plans for all the characters if the movie was successful.
Yes and no.
This is the best synopsis I can find from Vanity Fair:
"Initially, it was unclear whether theaters made this tweak at the secret behest of the studio, or if they were altering the film’s title out of their own self-interest. In an email to Vanity Fair, Birds of Prey producer and former Warner Bros. exec Sue Kroll clarified this, saying that while the title has not been officially changed, its online listings have just been tweaked so fans will “find it more quickly.”
