Hi Andrew,
I am using python script written for me twenty years ago. The current version is 3.8 KiB.
Script changes all camera originated file names for given directory to the format similar to the following example:
20190925_162322-pmb-G7X.jpg
where the first part is date and time (from exif if available), the second part is based on the name of directory, where image files are located. If raw file exists it is renamed to the same string:
20190925_162322-pmb-G7X.CR2
While it may solve your problem, it also allows to easily mix images from various cameras and phones if date/time in the camera is correctly set (if not it can be adjusted by this script). It also helps with various searches etc.
Let me know if you are interested...
