Use properties to set the export file name -- example:
   :PROPERTIES:
   :EXPORT_TITLE: Internet banking fraud
   :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: internet-fraud
   :EXPORT_AUTHOR: Alan L Tyree
   :Citation: (2011) 22 JBFLP 214
   :EXPORT_OPTIONS: num:nil toc:nil
   :END:

If I understood your question properly.

Cheers,
Alan
