So, I finally took the time to give Microsoft a call and we've managed to resolve the issue.
Basically I was unware that SharePoint TeamSite Titles are language specific.
Since are tenant's default language is German, and I've changed my SharePoint/Delve Profile to English and addition to enabling a secondary language for the affected TeamSite, the teamsite title didn't change for my user, because the new SharePoint Home only pulls from the tenants default language teamsite title.
Therefore I have to disable and/or switch languages to manually update all TeamSite titles.
By disabling my additional languages in my SharePoint profile and then changing the titles SharePoint Home showed the correct/desired titles.
Same is true for Video Channels, but I basically had to change all the titles again, as I wasn't changing the tenants defualt language.

I'm having the same issue but I'm only using English. I changed the title of my Site Collection but the old title is still showing up in the card at the Sharepoint Waffle Landing page. However, when I click into the card the new Title appears correctly. Any ideas on how to get the new Title to appear on the landing page?
