Default Artboard Names

How can we reset the artboard names with default ones?

Changing artboard name manually does not work, illustrator creates files with first original artboard name while exporting.

    Rename artboard in artboards panel. Then export artboards. The names of png files are the artboards names. Also you can add suffix and prefix

    Thank you for the replies.

    But I don't want to ''Artboard'' to be written on exported file name.

    I want to keep the original name of the *ai file on exported files.

    For example:

    Original Illustrator file name: Abc_logo.ai

    Exported files:

    Abc_logo-01.jpg

    Abc_logo-02.jpg

    Abc_logo-03.jpg

    Rather than: Abc_logo_Artboard 3.jpg (Renamed artboard) or Abc_logo_Artboard 20 copy.jpg

    Also looking for this solution. Default names are way too chunky.

    Which Illustrator version?

    I tried renaming the artboards in 2018 and the export kept those names.
