Action send, sending file how to change file name

Question

Hello I want to send file from my phone using intent. I get file patch in this way:

Intent get=new Intent();
                get.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
                get.setType("*/*");
                startActivityForResult(get,2);

and I receive path and send file in this way:

 if (requestCode == 2)
            {
                path = data.getData();

                Log.d("PATH", path.getPath());
                Intent send=new Intent();
                send.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
                send.setType("*/*");
                send.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,path);
                //startActivity(Intent.createChooser(send,"Sending"));
            }

Everything would be right but when I send file, it has an odd name, eg: orca_share_media1496666382761 how can I change the file name to be as it should be? I found different solution but there path was in String

You can move the file with the different name to some other folder and share that file, Don't forget to schedule and remove it later. — Muthukrishnan Rajendran, Jun 05 '17 at 13:11

I think you should rename file before sending if you want this to work. Here is some reference on how to do that android, How to rename a file?
