Given the fact that I already covered my opinions about the main characters, I think it is time for me, to explain my perception about the meaning of the title.
"One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest". The "cuckoo´s nest" is the hospital, where our story takes place and the one who flew is obviously McMurphy. He's a rebellious spirit who refuses to buckle under the rules, assiduously observed and applied by the head nurse, nurse ratchet, and is a constant source of free-thinking activity in violation of said rules.
His persona becomes uplifting, enlightening, freeing - much as a bird might inspire others to fly.
