no, you can't get the names back. Except for MP3’s, the id3 tags are stored in the file them selves, so you could use a program to reorganize them and rename them (‘the godfather’ is great at it)
The odd file types are caused when the software they use does not properly detect the file type. for example, jpg files, have certain headers built into the file them selves that is easily identified, special files, such as files proprietary to a certain non standard program (saved games files) will not be recognized. Most likely, you will have lost some stuff. A lot of the random files are either just old temp file. Some of the large ones might be the page file, they hibernation file, and possible large tempt files (caches before burning a CD or DVD)
