put hardstatus alwayslastline "%w" in ~/.screenrc will give you a nice list across the bottom of the terminal showing the window number and its contents. Of course, it usually just shows "bash" if you use ^a-c to create a new window. You can rename them with ^a-A to rename the window. Also, ^a-:-screen <command> will give you a new window running that command with that command as the window name. So if you have one bash instance inside screen and you type ^a-:-screen mutt, the title bar will show: 0 bash 1* mutt where the * indicates the current window. A
