Should CEO-founders give the co-founder title in full?

The founder-CEO desires the recruiting and loyalty juice that comes from offering the “co-founder” title, but she can’t bring herself to offer the title in full, so she allows “Founding Team.” I say: bite the ego bullet and offer the co-founder title in full. In the end, I recommend CEO-founders be generous in doling out the co-founder title.
