Disambiguation between titles under the same namespace is usually done by year (mostly for films) or by author name. Sometimes other things (like works of origin for fanfics) but it's rarer.

Note that, whatever the method chosen, none of the works have a specific claim over the short title (which is usually turned into a disambiguation); both works must have something appended to the title.
