Your way is automatically sorted by date when sorting by name and that's just, oh , uhhjh nnnnnngggg ahh.
Please excuse me as I change my pants
Or — hear me out — or you could sort by name if you want to sort by name and sort by modification date if you want to sort by modification date – and get this – sort by creation date if you want to sort by creation date.
No need to shove two pieces of information in the same field.
But creation date and or modification date aren't always the dates I want to sort by, so I use the same convention yyyy-mm-dd_name for most of my filenames too. It works for me, shoving those pieces of information all up in there. Lovin some shovin.
