Why was the title changed from the book's 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' to 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory'?

There are two competing stories:

One says that the change was to amp up Wonka's name because Quaker's new candy line was called Wonka Bars.

The other claim is that the filmmakers worried that the name "Charlie" was seen as a derogatory racial term (in some regions) for African American people.
