It wouldn't be the first time.  We know each other.  8-)

I may not have used the preferred terms, but GNAT does require specific file
names, or you can't compile your program.  Otherwise GNAT doesn't find package
specifications, etc..

On VMS, GNAT CHOP will take my usual Ada source and create the filenames
required by GNAT.
