@iDron - You cannot change the names or structure of the folders and files in a calibre library, see ==>> Want to change folder structure or file names in the Calibre library?

What do you mean by "after converting".
Do you convert the book and then use "save to disk" function to get the converted book?

There is setting in "preferences", "saving books to disk" where you can change the filename.

I do not think this was the original question.

The keywords are 'Template Language', saving to disk (or folder) template

do click (Calibre) Help and visit the Calibre FAQ and Manual pages for all sorts of 'how to' information.

do note that a {title} only template will bring unhappiness the first time you get 2 books with the same title. Having an {author} in there, breaks name ties. There are some (advanced) tips here at MR on how to use only the first Author for those case with more than 1

In my Calibre, I not use this function "Read metadata from file contents rather than file name". After DeDrm original AZW file from Kindle, I receive file with this text in the end of the file names EBOK - Unknown.

For example, original file name before DeDRM is B06Y4GR2TD_EBOK, but after DeDRM I have file with name B06Y4GR2TD EBOK - Unknown. I understand this - Unknown is author, I not need in this, I need have file just with B06Y4GR2TD in name.

How can I avoid these endings?

Books in the Calibre library will always be of the form Title - Author.

The Library stores: Author/Title (id)
If the OP want the original Filename, there is a Plugin for that: GetFileName that saves the Original Path in a custom column
Then the OP can use that column in their save template

I'm not sure what file name will be saved if you're also using Alf to remove DRM

I think that situation was resolved last year (in September or thereabouts), it may have required a change to the calibre core.
