Thanks for your reply.
>1: I didn't realize this could make a difference, thanks for pointing it out. I changed the system language to chinese and interestingly, footer now displays book titles with no problem but the main book list view still can not.
>3: Probably not. These fonts were the only fonts that worked for me when I sideloaded first and they happens to be in otf format.

Anyway, I tried to 'rename' the fonts last night with fontforge and the process didn't go very well. The software keeps giving alerts and errors and when I tried to 'generate fonts' after editing the font names, I got a dialog box on encoding problems that I know nothing about.
At this point, I feel like I've invested too much time and effort into this. I guess it will just be a minor annoyance that I will live with.
