Default Import pictures into preexisting folder?

there a way to import with the name named as picture ___ instead of the
camera code?


A lot of newer cameras don't do what you mention, they do not re-zero
the numbering system even after you erase the pictures on the camera..
If yours does re-zero, I suggest after uploading them to a folder
"batch" rename them with the date and names. Something like
"00_someone's wedding June 14" , this will make things easier to find
later. I upload my pictures to a temp new folder and batch rename them
then "cut" and "paste" them to my picture folder. Cutting and pasting
is instantaneous as it just changes the address of that folder to the
other folder. You are not really moving them, just telling the computer
where they are.
