    This issue persist when copying animation files (.anim) and renaming them outside the Unity Editor. Possibly also other file types I assume. While the OP specifically named materials, it's really a larger issue that has not been resolved and this should not be set to "Fixed".
    I'm using 2021.3.19f1 LTS and this issue is still a problem.

    This also happens when renaming Scriptable object assets (both asset & meta files) outside Unity, then refreshing under Unity.

    Unity 2022.1.7, this is happening on all *.asset files. The m_Name wants to change back and forth between "myAssetName" and "myAssetName.asset".

    A workaround that solved it for me is I needed to move the scriptable object subclass to a dedicated script containing only that class. I have no idea why this matters but it solved it for me. Noticing a lot of ridiculous bugs like this in the 2021 version, should've stuck with the 1994 build.
