I can do it through information on default Kodi but can't figure it out on Aeon mq8. I don't see a option to manage a title.

On mq7 when you select movie, you have to go in movie information (press I),click Reload, click Yes, in select movie screen click on manual and enter new movie name.
Its the same in Aeon MQ8

That's why @AleksandarLS  said you have to go to "Manual". That will enable you to manually type in the film you want to find.

They are both the same movie, but named differently depending on which country you live in.

If you want to change the name, then edit the Title through the Manage context menu

I did type it and the search just comes back with philosophers stone. Damn Brits!

Short answer... No. You need to do that manually. Kodi does not know which poster you want, so just allocates the most popular one.

Here is the entry at TheMovieDB... https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/671-har...uage=en-US Two ways to change the poster...

1. Go to Choose Art, then browse through the available posters, or
2. Find the correct poster at the above site, save it next to your video file and then apply the artwork through Choose Art. See image at bottom of page... https://kodi.wiki/view/Movie_artwork

What I said above, is different to what you are doing below.

To clarify...
1. Scrape your movie into the library. Don't keep scraping, nothing will change and it will still have the title you don't want
2. Go to your library listing and highlight the movie
3. Call up the Context Menu
4. Select Manage
5. Select Edit Title
6. Edit the title to the one you prefer

Now to change the Poster...
1. Go the the Movie Information Screen
2. Select Choose Art
3. Select Poster
4. Choose a new Poster.
