Al, the movie wasn't called "The Godfather's Son".

But the whole movie literally is about Michael becoming The Godfather. They won’t even take the wedding picture until he’s there, that’s how important Michael is. When the family needs someone to step up, it’s almost always Michael. So much so that he has to flee to Sicily for a huge chunk of time.
Marlon Brando isn’t the main character. He was just the biggest name associated with the movie at the time.

Exactly this, "The Godfather" refers to Michael, not Vito.

We also know this because they made one more movie after this, The Godfather Part II.

Come to think of it, I feel like DeNiro's Vito gets more screentime in Part II than Brando's Vito in part I, although I haven't compared the two myself.

The Godfather referred is Michael Corleone. This is his story - of transformation from an unassuming boy young man to the ruthless head of the Corleone crime family

Just a little correction. Carry on.
