Get the DisplayName of the field from the List

Question

Depends on the view I need to get the column name from the list.With the help of viewID I am able to retrieve the selected column from the list but I have an issue while retrieving the column names,I have written the code like this.

SPView currentlistview = currentList.GetView(viewID);


  foreach (string viewField in currentlistview.ViewFields)
  {
     string colname = currentList.Fields.GetField(viewField).Title;
     string colTitle = currentList.Fields.GetFieldByInternalName(viewField);
  }

I have tried both the possibilities but I am getting the internal name of the field in the list.Could anyone provide a solution to get the display name of the field ?

SPField.Title is the display name. Have you created strange names for the columns? — James Love, Jun 07 '11 at 16:40
