Numbered tables in Pages

Hi,

I have a Pages document in which I present a series of small tables. Each table has a title, let's say Chocolate – Candy – Licorice.

The tables contain data related to different topics, let's say the annual consumption of children vs. adults. Each topic is on a separate page. So there is one page showing the tables on chocolate/candy/licorice (children) and another showing those on chocolate/candy/licorice (adults).

The titles are supposed to be Chocolate – Candy – Licorice no matter the topic. But whenever I insert a table with the same title as already existing in the document, it becomes numbered (Chocolate-1).

How can I prevent that? I already tried inserting a new section in the document right before the next topic, but it does not change the numbering.

Thank you for hints or workarounds!
