Why is Beetlejuice Beetle Juice?

Hello,
I've discovered something weird: when I look for Beetlejuice, the 1988 Burton flick and I'm logged in with my IMDB ID it shows the movie as "Beetle Juice" - two words. When I'm not logged it's "Beetlejuice"... any suggestions WHY?

IMDb has the original on-screen title as Beetle Juice, but Beetlejuice as display title for several locations:

Perhaps you have chosen to see original titles in your site settings.

I think the original title is based on this title card in the film:
