You cannot name blocks with a filter but you can name them if the reader supports this feature. I believe a few readers support this feature - the EnSight reader for example. I don't think the X3D exporter knows anything about blocks though. It exports the scene directly and the geometry from the blocks is merged before it makes it into the scene.
