That message does not appear in CC.

Where are you changing the template? You should be changing it in CC as described in Solution 1 of the FAQ How do I get the same file names in CC no matter which connection I use?. I have changed the "SD card is slow" FAQ to make this clearer.

It is possible to change the template in calibre instead of CC. The template would look quite different. It would also suffer from the problems mentioned in the "same file names" FAQ.
