Chapters don't need to have a title. "Chapter NN" is fine.

Or you can have _only_ a title — that's generally when the title identifies some kind of shift, like a different time, location, or narrator/POV focus.

So you can have

> Chapter 1
> 
> Chapter 6
> 
> Chapter 47

or

Location:

> Vulcan, 2265

POV:

> Brienne

Time:

> A few hours later
