Navigation Controller Title

I have a navigation controller and i set the title in the viewDidLoad like so: 

self.title = @"My View Controller";

But a name like that is too long to fit in the tab bar name down below. How do i change the tab bar name without changing the title displayed on the navigation bar?

You should set the tabBarItem property of the tabBarController of your tab bar. That's the correct way to go.

If I am correct, you can set them separately. If you are adding view controllers to the tab bar, you can do something like:

thisViewController.title = @"Name of this view controller"; (or self.title in your case)

and then for the title at the top, after have self.navigationItem.title = @"Title at top";?
