I suggest you post your question on the CT forum. There might be others there who have gone through this process and could help you.

One idea I had was using Directory Opus (or a similar tool) to batch-rename the files. See some instructions here:

Another option might be to write an AutoHotkey or a Python script to take the folder name and rename the file it contains (I don’t know if that’s possible, just thinking out loud). Perhaps someone on the CT forum could help with that.
