Stopping Calibre from abridging filenames?

So I'm trying to remove the DRM from all my azw3 ebooks and comic books, and converting them to epubs/cbz respectively. I'm using the noDrm plugin, and using KindleUnpack. One thing I noticed is that Calibre applies its own naming conventions to the files it outputs, and that includes truncating filenames, leaving me with incomplete information, or even identical filenames (Saga of the Swamp Thing Book Five and Four both become Saga of the Swamp Thing Book F, for instance). This causes problems when I'm trying to further convert the epubs into cbz files, and I can only assume it will also cause problems if I'm not going to use Calibre beyond the conversion progress.

Now, some googling leads me to believe I can't change the naming conventions, but can I change some setting for file name length? Or is there a way to remove drm and/or convert files without relying on Calibre at all?
