A cleaned up answer for Swift 4 with an extension off of PHAsset:

import Photos

extension PHAsset {
    var originalFilename: String? {
        if #available(iOS 9.0, *),
            let resource = PHAssetResource.assetResources(for: self).first {
            return resource.originalFilename
        }

        return value(forKey: "filename") as? String
    }
}

As noted in XCode, the originalFilename is the name of the asset at the time it was created or imported.
