"Kirby[u]'s[/u] Return to Dream Land" is the name of the game in North America, while "Kirby's Adventure Wii" is the name of the game in Europe (including UK) and Australia.
The question is whether by "English name" we mean the UK name or the US name (this problem occurs for many other games as well). The ideal would be a system to store both names or even more (French name, English name (Europe/PAL), English Name (NA/NTSC), Japanese name, etc.)

For the time being, and to be consistent with how VGR currently handles games with the same problem (ex: [url=https://www.video-games-records.com/jet-grind-radio-jeu-j118.html]Jet Set Radio / Jet Grind Radio[/url]) we should probably still use [b]Kirby's Return to Dream Land[/b] as the "English" name for the game.

I agree that listing both names makes it easier for everyone to find their games ([url=https://www.cyberscore.me.uk/search.php?s=kirby]Cyberscore chose this solution too[/url]). However this also means that now many games have to be renamed: looking at VGR Kirby games only, 6 of them have two English names:
