At least on Eclipse Juno, you can toggle on Advanced. Then select [groupid].[artifactid] from the Name Template dropdown. That should make your project uniquely named. (If you keep multiple versions of a given artifact, you can select [groupid].[artifactid].[version] instead). Be sure to click the Refresh button so the changes are visible. Wash, rinse, repeat as needed.
