What to list on resume? M&A or IB Summer analyst

Worked at a small boutique bank this summer. Worked as an M&A Summer Analyst within IBD, but not sure what would be the best title for my position on my resume. Should I title my position as an Investment Banking Summer Analyst, and then explain in my bullet points that I did M&A..or should I just straight up list my position as a Mergers and Acquisitions Summer Analyst.

I know its a basic question, but please bare with me.

I am in the same situation and I put Investment Banking Summer Analyst on my resume. Sounds plain and that's what most people tend to do after an SA M&A stint.
