When I first noticed the problem I noticed that the books had the same "S" only name in the Calibre filenames so I had the filenames updated to the same template as all my other books. I'm not sure why Calibre was still sending the wrong filename to CC because I had deleted the files from CC (using Calibre) before renaming them and even deleted the existing mobi/azw3 files and reconverted the epubs to mobi after changing the filenames and then restarted Calibre. I even double checked the filenames in the containing folder after restarting Calibre before trying to transfer them back to CC. But the filenames were still "S" in CC so Calibre was still sending the wrong info.

I changed the settings to use the UUID instead and that seems to have fixed things, but I agree that it would be nice to know why the wrong filenames persisted in the transfer.
Try unchecking the "Replace books with same calibre id". If that is set then if a book is resent the template is ignored and the original file name is used. That means that if the original name was "S" for some reason (an incorrect template at some point?) then it is stuck with that name even if it conflicts with some other book.
