It's called Mario Story in Japan, which the "paper" style is supposed to be like a storybook. Calling it Paper Mario is too...I guess...literal, if that makes sense.

It would be like calling Super Mario Bros. 3 "Super Mario Stage Play".

I disagree, but then again I only know it as Paper Mario. I perceive it as truly a different world where everything is paper. Paper Mario and Mario are two different characters.

I dunno, I think it's a pretty good name

"mario story" is like... as generic of a title as possible.

This. Even the story embraces the paper world. Just started Color splash and straw shy guys are hilarious.

If you can get past the boring combat, Color Splash is a fun experience

I'm playing Paper Mario 64 right now. I think it's a good descriptor for a name because literally none of his other games have him and others as paper. It even gets expanded on in later titles.

you know I thought about it, and the word "Story" in this context could mean something a little different than the Western interpretation of the word.

And it's great because calling him Paper Mario makes it easier to differentiate between regular Mario and him.
