I am trying to generate a post title from fields in the cred post form, specifically, i want to have the parent post TITLE field as part of my child post title.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Here is the code I am using, that currently returns the parent post ID. I just need to know if there is a way to specify that I want the TITLE instead of the ID of the parent. Please and thank you:

$parent_post_id = $_POST['@client-client-portfolio_parent'];

It sounds like you need the post title, but you only have access to the post ID. You should be able to get a post title given the ID using WordPress's function get_the_title: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_title/

$parent_post_id = $_POST['@client-client-portfolio_parent'];
$parent_post_title = get_the_title($parent_post_id);

Then use the variable $parent_post_title as needed instead of $parent_post_id to construct the child post title.
