You need to get the file name from the file path and give as a plot name.See the attached example.

Solved?

Another possible approach for naming plots could be using waveform datatype. The waveform datatype includes attributes which could be read/written by get/set attribute. The attribute for the plot name would be NI_ChannelName.

hope this helps,
