While this might be controversial of a BUR, especially as it goes against the classical rule of following the romanized name in the original language first, and then aliasing the titles used in English, I think it's not unbased:
1) The "Mahou Shoujo" moniker is not commonly used in the west at all. Sure, it's not unheard of, but "Puella Magi" definitely takes precedent. Similar with subtitles such as "Hangyaku no Monogatari" vs "Rebellion".
2) The "Puella Magi" moniker is commonly used by original Japanese media, going as far as pre-release material from 2010 (post #815154), and also alluded to directly in the stories - for instance at the end of an elaborate transformation scene in Rebellion, the cast shouts out "Puella Magi Holy Quintet", and in Magia Record, a recent series of events was titled "Puella Historia".
3) It is not completely unheard on Danbooru to use western titles in place of original ones - not only do we have popular Chinese games such as Genshin Impact (Yuánshén) or Arknights (Míngrì Fāngzhōu), but also Japanese media such as Neon Genesis Evangelion (Shin Seiki Evangelion) or Ace Attorney (Gyakuten Saiban).
I am purposefully omitting a few installments in this BUR, namely the ones that do not have official translations. Those that feature the Puella Magi moniker will receive a separate BUR.
