For those who only what to give the name through the $options:

Replace (line 1056?)

$file->name = $this->get_file_name($uploaded_file, $name, $size, $type, $error, $index, $content_range);

with

$extension = pathinfo($name , PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
if ( $extension != "" ){
    $extension = "." . $extension;
}

$file->name = (isset($this->options['filename']) && isset($extension) ) 
     ? $this->options['filename'] . $extension
     : $this->get_file_name($uploaded_file, $name, $size, $type, $error, $index, $content_range);

Then give the name in the option like this:

$upload_handler = new UploadHandler(array(['filename' => 'whatever' ]));
