Thanks for your help. I thought the import UI would have the ability to name the imported tiddler. I checked the TiddlyWiki docs and only find this page dealing with tiddler imports https://tiddlywiki.com/#Importing%20Tiddlers but it doesn't contain any information about naming tiddlers on import. When I paste an image from the clipboard this is what I'm seeing and I can't find a way to name the tiddler.
