Voice Memos iOS Bug: Renaming constantly overridden

hi, I have an iPhone 6. I use voice memos to record song sketches. I have 580 memos going back to 2014. As of today (11-12-23) these have been renamed as date and location. Have tried disabling the date/location tab in settings but even though showing disabled the file makes cannot be renamed.

Are the file names retrievable?

Earlier iPhone models

I'm having this same problem, and apparently it's a recurring one (see e.g. Voice Memos iOS Bug: Renaming constantly … - Apple Community). My phone's software is up-to-date at iOS 15.8.1. This bug has persisted through multiple software updates. It's extremely problematic. Apple, please provide a lasting fix and also answer the question above re the retrievability of old file names.
