Maybe to avoid confusion with Godzilla (2014), because the 1954 film and the 2014 film has the same title: "Godzilla". We have been calling it that way before 2014 was announced. Or because of The Return of Godzilla (1984) was released in Japan as "Godzilla".

The Return of Godzilla, released in Japan as Godzilla (ゴジラ Gojira )
