Is there a quick way inside of Illustrator to rename these assets I'm trying to export?

I'm trying to export 90 icons and I was hoping that in export the assets would've kept the name of the layers made. Is there a way to still export these with the names of the layers automatically or would I need to use another program like bridge to batch rename the files? Thank you!

Sergey Osokin has a nifty renamer script. It may help you.

This script exports named layers:

When preparing things for the built-in Asset Export, I usually use artboards, as you can name those and export with them as filenames.
