Allow exporting the models with the name they already have assigned

Currently, when I want to export an object to OBJ, STL, etc., the default name is: Untitled.*** When I have many models, it becomes cumbersome to change this file name. During my workflow, I assign names to each object to maintain order, and then when exporting, I have to re-enter those names. I would like the default name to be the one already assigned in my scene collection.

Edited: I can add something else. When the "Selection Only" box is checked, the name automatically changes to the name of the object already named. When the "Selection Only" box is unchecked, the name could be that of the created *.blend file.
