Coordinated naming of patches (and sources, and other files) used to matter when people dumped them in a shared directory like ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/. I really really hope nobody does that anymore. When files are stored in individual directories, in the usual dist-git layout, then the naming is up to the maintainers. In particular, NNNN-description-with-dashes.patch is often used, since this is what 'git format-patch' generates. But there is no need for guidlines to prescribe any naming.
