That was it!!

Yea, the calibredb export makes the correct (desired) filename, but I couldn't figure out why the KFX title was off

I didn't remember even having a metadata plugboard, but that was where my mistake was

Thanks for straightening me out

Life is good

If you install the KFX Input plugin you can then view the metadata of KFX files using the calibre CLI command "ebook-meta".
I'll have check that out also
