I'm unsure of your bigger question because I have a Sony and it all just works automatically with calibre.
What I am sure about is that you shouldn't waste your time changing the titles in your library so they show up the way you want them to on your Nook. There are metadata plugboards that allow you to setup your books so the names are changed on the fly as they are sent to your device.
Read the "
Techniques to use plugboards, custom columns and templates" sticky post for examples on what I'm referring to. I use the guidelines under the
General Metadata spoiler tag. My books are renamed on the fly, below are examples of how they are sent to my device.
Series: The Lord of the Rings
Series index: 2
Title: The Two Towers
Output: LotR [02] The Two Towers
Series: Dahak
Series index: 1
Title: Mutineers Moon
Output: Dahak [01] Mutineers Moon
Series: Berserkers
Series Index: 4
Title: Berserker Throne
Output: Bers-kers [04] Berserker Throne
Series: Meg Langslow Mysteries
Series Index: 3
Title: Revenge of the Wrought-Iron Flamingos
Output: MLM [03] Revenge of the Wrought-Iron Flamingos
There are many other examples on the page to explore, but this is the plugboard I use.
Good Luck.
