Well they were really hesitant to establish the character of "Link" early on... otherwise, I just think of it as being akin to the etiquette for how plays were often named in the past, they being named after the highest ranking figure in play even when they didn't play a particularly large role :D

If Shakespeare had lived in Hyrule he too would have been naming his plays after Zelda rather than Link.
