. . . and this is why as a film buff, you can't have a logical discussion with a fan. Obviously everybody doesn't, or didn't know. The answer was no. Dooku was never referred to as Darth anything in the films. Any other assumptions are just that, since all other Sith Lords in the "movies" are referred to by their Sith name and nothing else. Vader is never referred to by Palpatine as Skywalker again after being given a Sith name. Maul is known by nothing else. Sure, a good movie that treats it's audience as being somewhat able to figure stuff out doesn't have to spell everything out, but it's easy in this case to question whether Dooku had attained that Darth title or not.
And no EU stuff doesn't come into it, nor action figures or anything else that's not in the film. If you have to go to an outside source to completely make your case, then it wasn't completely clear.
