Nicely explained Jason.
I started naming my new photo's with Latin & Common Name (where pos.), a few months ago
e.g. Melolontha melolontha_Cockchafer_0001.CR2
Anthomyiidae sp_Muscid Fly_0003.CR2
And have re-named all the previous photo's I'd taken, this way.
I find that this helps, like you say, for those critters that have no common name or several common names and it also educates me.
