By "huge name" do you mean a UUID? Something like:
8828eacb-11b9-45b8-8558-d2f945c337f6

I wonder if there's a drive/partition/file-system problem? Have your
run SMART checks on your drive? Have you run a full fsck on your
partitions? What file system are you using?

Also, instead of powering off the laptop, perhaps try magic keys, so
that you can sync your file system and put it in a clean state before
cutting power.
