in Nickel a file shows "Series - # - Title" with author below, under :books:
Maybe it's because you use Save to File instead of Send to Device, don't you?

I don't use calibre that way. I did give it a try with a small library of about 600 titles, so calibre created the file structure it uses on my device. It seems to work, and adds some neat search potential. But, I only used it for some testing. (I should get around to cleaning that off my device.)
My file names and folder structure were/are created using normal file handling tools, in windows. While I was building it, I would use a simple sync tool to make the folder/file structure and contents on the device match the one I keep on my PC. I have all the file handling tools of the PC to manage the one on the PC.
Lately, I just drag any new book file out of the calibre "containing folder" and into the proper folder on my device. Then I make any changes to the file name, so that the file name fits in properly with the files already there. Now a days, I only add a few files at a time. (If I were doing it properly I would have added the file to the PC library and synced it to the device.)
Also, I don't use Nickel, and have all my e-books behind a "Hidden" folder.
Luck;
