I don't do specifically what OP did, but often I remember things by when better than by name.

Sorting a folder by last modified/created in descending order generally gets me what I'm looking for pretty quickly

I tend to save things with the name embedded, so "--_" and use the date that's relevant for the file, not necessarily when it was created (e.g. due date for homework, tax return due date, etc). If I don't care (e.g. a downloaded image), I just accept whatever the default is.
