Sometimes it's the publisher who does it. For example Agatha Christie has some books whose titles are different depending on where the book is published. A good example of this is "Murder in the Calais Coach" which is also known as "Murder on the Orient Express." According to Wikipedia:

The US title of Murder on the Calais Coach was used to avoid confusion with the 1932 Graham Greene novel Stamboul Train which had been published in the US as Orient Express.
