Simple answer: Marketing, if bungie changes the name Halo to another name alot of people who know the name Halo but dont actually play the game but are thinking of buying the game will not buy the game, the more well known your name is the more you will sell.
Exactly. This is the reason why the book was called "Halo: Fall of Reach". The book had absolutely nothing to do with any of the Halo rings. Yet, if the book was just called Fall of Reach, most people would be confused.. As long as it is in the Halo universe and contributes to the Halo story it is valid to keep the name Halo as its franchise title.
