YOu cannot change the name of the clip until AFTER you import it into FCP. And I suggest that you keep the original number somewhere in the name in case your imported file gets lost or corrupted, so that you can simply re-import it again.
 
You can use HDLog to create USER CLIP NAMES and map those to the FCP Name field. User clip names can be anything you like, and, as Shane's proposing, you could do something like cancantinate the Reel+Project+clip01,02,03 etc.... very easy to do using "Auto Fill" feature in HDLog.

Then export just the clips or portions of them you want for FCP via XML. No more no names. And, if you save your log files you can always find the originals or clips by descriptions or log notes, etc.
